'lo everybody!

How many of you are going to Seattle August 12th for the win3.1 professional
developer's conference?  Send me some mail--it'd be fun to meet for lunch or
something.  I'll wait a few weeks then post a list of everybody who responded.

For those not on the MS Developers mailing list, MS is putting on a 2 day conf
for developers (quote "this is not a marketing meeting.  There will be no neck
ties, no sales presentations and little tolerence for beginners!").  For $400,
the entire 20-man windows development team will supposedly be there to give
classes on new features (OLE, truetype, drag-drop, future 32bit, new tools, 
etc).  Everyone attending is also supposed to get the 3.1 beta SDK, several
tools (like dr. watson), and a CD of all (? not sure..) the MS "white papers."
(I think the white papers are the things with the long part numbers the support
people sometimes refer you too).
