alice-teacher Alice 2.2, Version 8/05/2011, is now available

[Don Slater]

It is my personal practice to remove the version that is on my system by deleting the old directory, and install the newest release, by unzipping the download and moving the Alice 2.2 directory to the desired location. There is no formal uninstall process.

Because Alice 2.2 is a self-contained install and does not write to the system registry, copying over the old version with the new will probably work, but as always, your mileage may vary ;-)

Let us know if you have any questions / problems.

All the best,
Don Slater
