I would like to know if anyone here is discussing program developement under MS Windows.

As near as I can tell this is a perfectly acceptable place to discuss MS-Windows software development issues. Once MS ships the 2.0 toolkit to people there may even be some activity on the subject, at least I hope so.

I'm not interested in it, and my guess is that most are interested in Unix X/NeWs/ Mac OS-A/UX development. Without getting into Religious issues, MS Windows will not be viewed seriously until say OS/2 and Presentation Manager are REAL and SHIPPED. The focus for MS sort of discussions should be better left to any DOS oriented newsgroups. Anyway, so much for my opinion... David

There should be some place for us poor MS Windows programmers to get together. Since there seems to be no comp.windows.ms or comp.windows.suckers ( :-) ) group, this seems to be the best place. Traffic on the comp.sys.ibm.pc is too big already. The reason that I suggest comp.windows.suckers for the MS windows group is that IBM has started giving away computers (I get a Model 80) to us in academia who promise to write a Windows program.

Yes Yes Yes... If anyone wants to discuss MS-Windows, I'm all ears. Any new news group would be fantastic. As far as New-Wave, I'd say that could all be discussed within the Ms-Windows realm. But for now... I'm all for MS-Windows discussions. If you have any questions or comments write them here... and if traffic gets substantial it may justify a new newsgroup. --------------------------------------------- Tim Villanueva "My comments are my own Hewlett-Packard (Personal Software Division) and not those of any 408-773-6268 Mailstop: 81UO other entity, especially tvillan%hpccc@hplabs.HP.COM the one I work for!" ---------------------------------------------
