Yes thats because the fixpack1 of WSeB has been delayed. It should
be out soon, which will bring WSeB to the same level with fp13. Remember
that WSeB has two kernels, one is the uni-processor and the SMP one.

IBM has merged Warp4 into WSeB code. Its easier to maintain one code
rather than three! Remember that warp3 has been dropped. It also brings
one major feature, the high memory addressing, which enables you to
run things win MS Word under Odin on OS/2.
