****************************************************************************** DORIS Electronic Mail Wed Jul 14 9:34:36 WETDST 1999 Message Number 0076 ****************************************************************************** Author: Bernard Bonhoure (CNES) Subject: Y2K Readiness for the DORIS Beacon Network Studies and tests were conducted over the last months for Y2K verification, concerning the DORIS Beacon Network. Results clearly show that except for the YARRAGADEE beacon, all DORIS beacons are currently ready for Y2K. The YARRAGADEE beacon will be replaced by a new 2.0 beacon in August 1999. So all beacons of the DORIS Network will properly work after Y2K. Note that verifications included other 'risky' dates like 29 February 2000, 1 January 2001...
