+LAST MINUTE INFORMATION -- Release of Erlang 5.7/OTP R13A
+
+
+1.      GENERAL
+        -------
+
+1.1     Installation Guide
+
+        The installation guide can be found in
+
+                <inst-root>/doc/installation_guide/part_frame.html
+
+1.2     Java
+
+        The Java sources were compiled using Java version 1.5.
+
+1.3     Disk space
+
+        An installation of Erlang/OTP needs approximately 140 MB of
+        disk space.
+
+1.4     The package contains HTML documentation. You can also get this
+        documentation preformatted for printing in PDF format from
+
+            http://www.erlang.se/doc/
+
+        This site also contains HTML documentation for older releases
+        as a reference.
+
+1.5     The Erlang system can run old BEAM files compiled with R11B-2
+	or later (and almost all BEAM files compiled with R11B-0 or
+	R11B-1). BEAM files from R10B or earlier are not supported.
+
+	To get the best performance, you should recompile your
+	application code with the R13A compiler.

+
+3.      NOTES ABOUT THE VXWORKS VERSION
+        -------------------------------

+	libraries (erl_interface and ic's libraries) are supported. Running
+	the Erlang emulator on VxWorks might still possible but it's no longer
