Hi,
Just a quick question. I ordered the 2.0 technical documentation.
I figured that would get o me faster than anything else, but here it
is 2 months later and -- no documentation. Does anyone have it? Does
anyone know when it is coming out?
Thanks!

Anyone know why it is taking so long for these to arrive? It puts little developers at a many month disadvantage, no?

Don't tell me NeXT has a shortage of printing paper also. 8^) I ordered mine a couple of months ago, and nothing. /* ** ============================================================================ ** ** Felix A.

Because this is the real world where the product still has priority over the documentation despite what they teach you in school. There is a lot of work involved other than writing the docu. if you want to have it printed. Most of the things (much more than under 1.0) you can find online.
