Middle Agents

• Matchmaker Version 2.2 (August 2002)
  

  Link to the Matchmaker readme.

• Agent Management Agent 1.3.3 (November 2002)
  

  The AMA works with the MatchMaker and the Agent Name Server to monitor active agents.

  The 1.3.2 update adds support for additional information from the user in the content field of the ping, as well as attempting to fix a bug that causes Exceptions when an Agent is removed by the Matchmaker.

  The 1.3.3 update adds an option to turn off the information messages, as well as the ability to change the ping's task. This allows the user broad powers in what is information is sent to an agent.

  The 1.3.3a updates the default ping task to "Ping"

• Error Reporting Agent 1.1 (Initial Release, January 2003)
  

  The ERA provides remote task tracing, remote error reporting, and multiple customized ping support.
