Hello,
Leah has discovered that the MEMBERS table is broken.
Turns out that the 'fast conversion' did not copy
the regular CENSUS rows into MEMBERS, so MEMBERS
contains _only_ interpolated rows.
This is now fixed in the code but not in the
data. I will send another announcement later today
when the data is fixed in the 'babase' database.
FYI,
In related news, FRA currently has CENSUS rows
after his Statdate (in both foxpro and postgres).
Leah and Cathrine are working
to fix this. This has been a known problem.
The 'fast conversion' does not catch this.
When the 'slow conversion' is run it automatically
adjusts the Statdate, so this shows as a difference
between the old and new BIOGRAPH tables.
