[comp.os.os2] Is your PM or OS/2 program going to use HPFS Extended Attributes?

gee@flamingo.metaphor.com (06/08/90)

We're putting together a file conversion/copying program running under OS/2,
and weren't really sure about how HPFS' extended attributes fit into the
grand scheme of things.

It seems unclear from everything I've read so far about how extended attributes
were going to be used by Microsoft or by OS/2 & PM apps, and I was wondering
what specific plans developers had out there for specific EA fields, e.g.,
file type, icon type, etc.

Any information about what your company or organization is planning or 
doing with EAs would be gratefully appreciated.
