Hello! As I am happen to be a member of PWD, I suspect that since I haven't been able to negotiate a proper connection to their activities regarding Flex, I suspect that's why what you've got there, did not arrive here.
I am interested naturally, but, ah, I suspect the representatives from Flex would be loudly annoyed at my comments. IBM on the other hand would be interested, but not ready to be involved. Or perhaps curious but not totally interested and then involved. Those of you who noted what I posted regarding the H entity, please feel free to contact me off list. -- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The Force will be with you. Always."
