I'm still here...

We gave out prototype libraries at a BADGE meeting a while back.  There
was a copy of almost the same thing in the disk set given out at the 
developer conference as well.  Didn't get too much in the way of comments
either.

Deal is, we'd like to have it in 1.4.  Folx at Commodore have kind of
told us sort of what this might take, and we're working on it.  Main
factors here are my day job and Leo's Onion-type activities.  It should
soon be moving to a front burner.

I'm glad to see some interest, but I'd be more interested in hearing
suggestions or especially problems with the concept we presented at
BADGE and the developer conference.  If you have the stuff and haven't
looked at it, I'd consider it a personal favor if you'd take a few
minutes and glance over the documentation or code examples.  If it
doesn't do what you want I'd rather hear about it now than a year
from now.

"Thank you for your support."
