Thank you.  It's nice to hear that Sun hasn't abandoned NeWS after all,
and it's even nicer to hear it from an authoritative source :-).  I was
hoping someone from Sun would pipe up and say something, actually.  I
hope I'll have to take back the evil nasty things I said about Sun last
week... :-).  Hopefully the Sun marketroids will get the idea this time
around.
