We will be performing a planned upgrade to MeetingMaker on Thursday, August 28th. As you log into MeetingMaker on Thursday morning, you will be prompted to install a new version of the client software on your machine. Simply follow the instructions in the setup routine by clicking through the wizard and accepting the defaults. This process will take about 10 minutes to complete. The server software will be upgraded the previous evening, on August 27th.
In order for this to proceed as smoothly as possible, please exit out of MeetingMaker or power-down your PC by 5:00pm on August 27th. In addition, if you are a Palm user, please sync your Palm before leaving on the 27th. NOTE: Access to the MeetingMaker database will be unavailable from 5:00pm on August 27th until 8:00am on August 28th.
The new client interface for MeetingMaker has been greatly improved and should be much more intuitive to use than prior releases. However, for those of you wanting a quick primer on the new client, we will be offering "open-house" training sessions in the Main Computer Lab on Thursday from 9:00am-12:00pm and again from 1:30pm-4:00pm. We will also be providing an "open-house" session on Friday morning from 9:30am-12:00pm. Please feel free to stop by at your convenience.
For complete information on the upgrade process, including how to perform the client upgrade and what the impacts on you will be, please visit http://it.fuqua.duke.edu/mmaker03/ .
Please contact the Technical Support Center at ext. 7878 with any additional questions regarding the upgrade process.
