I got to wondering about MPW 3.1 and C++.  I know that C++ Beta
version is available, and I have seen MPW 3.1-beta-1 floating about;
so I called APDA to ask.

The order taker knew nothing about MPW 3.1, beta or otherwise.  I also
asked if buying C++ beta implied one would also receive (automatically
and free) the release version, and the order taker said they hadn't
had any information about that either.  (So I didn't even get to ask
if the eventual price of the release version would be different.)

I have to assume that the MPW 3.1-beta-1 I saw was some sort of early
or seeded version, or does it come with the beta C++?  Has anyone
heard anything about when the relase versions might become available?

(If responses are e-mailed rather than posted I'll summarize to the net.)

	Thanks / JBL
