It was no problem to use the same license.dat from our 3.5
installation (I do not remember the upgrades before). I cannot say
anything to the claimed bugs at the moment, as I need to upgrade
my systems to Motif1.2 (I am currently at 1.1.4 and IDL3.6.1 crashes
with that, whenever a window application is called).

I agree, that it is annoying to look for the new distribution every
couple of days. It's not that much time to launch a two-liner "IDL3.6.1
ist available..." to a mail-alias of all their IDL customers.
