Dear LHAPDF user,

Following the release of LHAPDF-5.8.6 yesterday afternoon as slight
error was noticed in the HERAPDF15NLO_ALPHAS.LHgrid file (the HERAPDF
1.5 alphas variations at nlo)   In the parameter list for the alphas
values at Mz, set members 7 and 8 should have been 0.121 and o,122 and
NOT 0.122 and 0.123.  This was corrected at around 15.30 this afternoon.

This would not affect the pdfs themselves only the alphas(Q) values
returned by the program for those particular set members.

Therefore if anyone has downloaded this particular set, either from the
lhapdf web site or using the bin/lhapdf-getdata script, can they
download it again to get the corrected version.

Any problems, as usual send them to lhapdf at projects.hepforge.org

Best regards,

Mike Whalley
