Hi Nick,

Just to bring this good advice up to date.

When one orders the 1881 Census for the LDS Distribution Center <sic> in
Birmingham, one now gets version 4 of the RFV software, with the ability to
upgrade it to version 4.02, I think, by applying a small patch.

This is the same version 4 / 4.02 that one gets with the British VRI
Version 2 CD set.

Season's Greetings,

Phil.
