And I forgot to tell where I got my information from so here goes;
The above was baced on an article in May 91 issue of MacUser called
"Applications are Talking Too" by Michael Swaine pg 239
And the article stated that since a part of IAC (publish and subscribe)
(I think) was not standerdized, "programs made by the same company would
communicate better with each other then with those from other companies."
(The above is a paraquote)
Now that you have my souce I welcome any debate on the interpitation of
this article sited.
