For people that want to try out channel access on Windows NT 3.5, I have
placed an archive file, ca_r12b.zip, on light8.lbl.gov for anonymous FTP
in the EPICS directory. The file contains the dynamic link libraries for
building
either Channel Access or Simple Channel Access clients, a Labview for NT VI,
which 
uses SCA to access CA servers, and a few sample client applications.

The source code for the CA library is included in the current R12 beta which is
still under test. We are still working on the makefiles to allow the NT version
to be built from the standard distribution.

The current version runs only on Windows NT, though it shouldnt be hard for
me to get it working on Windows95. It will not run on Windows 3.11. Currently,
the repeater must be started from the command line.

I have been using it for about a month against r11 servers and it seems
stable so I'm looking for other people interested in trying it.
