As a member of the WAVV Board, I can assure you that WAVV has never been in Leipzig. Dr. Strassemeyer (not Dr. Goebel) has indeed discussed future chip designs at WAVV opening sessions, but nothing at the level of detail given by Mr. Webb on the z6. It's the level of detail I find unusual. Perhaps you are referring to GSE, Guide-SHARE Europe? I don't attend those meetings, so I can't comment. >I shall continue to open my email, no matter what IBM's lawyers say.
