   Well, time for the most frequently asked question as of late.  Its
been over two months since I've seen this thread, so I though I
would ask.

   Does anyone at C= have *any* idea of how close Commodore is to reaching
a burn=in date to commit 2.0 to ROM?

  The last I heard, someone at CA decided to add a couple of new
features to WB.  I dont think features are what people want; what
people want is for software to actually *work* under 2.0.  Until
it hits ROM, major software vendors wont take 2.0 seriously enough
to actually start *programming* under 2.0.

  And just because a piece of software is listed in the "2.0 Complaint
Software List", it doesnt mean it actually works under 2.0.  Quite a
few pieces of software made to "work" under 2.0, simply doesn't.  Until
2.0 hits ROM, they simply wont take the time or effort.
