To be precise, the developers toolkit shipped in December '89 (TCP transport, 4.3 BSD socket library, RFC 1002 NetBios, example progs and documentation etc....) and the end user package (with Telnet, FTP, Berkeley R-Utilities etc...) first left our warehouses on April 28th of this year. The packages run on OS/2 1.1 or 1.2, standard or extended editions. The 4 month window gave our developers a comfortable margin in which to start to get their products ready before the end user binaries started pumping through our distribution channels (some 10,000 resellers for this particular product). Hope this has cleared up any confusion re the availability of our contribution to the "TCP/IP for OS/2 product list". I'm pleased to see so many products already on it.... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Keith Brown Phone: (408) 473 8308 Novell San Jose Development Centre Fax: (408) 433 0775 San Jose, California 95131 Net: keith@novell.COM ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
