Has anyone heard when we'll see an update to Aztec/Manx c? My version 3.6a is dated 18-Dec-87. (Yes 1987). Is this the latest release? Jim, talk to me. -- --------------------------------------------------------- Reply-To: ba@m2-net.UUCP (Bill Allen Beogelein) M-NET, Ann Arbor, MI or call Sharewarer's BBS at 313-473-2020 24hrs, PCP thru MIDET, 100% Amiga ---------------------------------------------------------

I talked to Manx a few weeks ago, and their next release has been pushed off to this fall. The person I spoke with was not pleased with this. Note the follow-ups have been directed to c.s.a. Bill Murphy

I am reposting this because it bounced back to me from some server or another (I doubt anyone not local could read the original). In some article chad@cup.portal.com (Chad The-Walrus Netzer) writes: > Take all the time you need to make 5.0 solid, bug free, and feature >packed, Jim... Don't release it until that is done and all the known bugs are >fixed... MHO, that's all. And please, please, please release something ANSI compatible (ESPECIALLY prototypes) in the mean time (can you say yesterday?). Sure there are a lot of neat features that can be added, but the Amiga needed this from the start, and I REALLY wanted it when I bought my copy of K&RII - almost a year ago!!! Will the first version of Amiga Aztec C++ come about the time an ANSI committee has been started and completed a standard? Or will it be a few years after the draft standard has been pretty stable and adopted by all competition? -- dTb dTb I know enough about epistemology to know that I don't know anything about programming OR epistemology!
