As did we. But Mentat abandoned their support for NT (short of buying out a source license which was prohibitive) and there is not even a port to 2000 et al. Having slogged in the windows kernel for little return I can't say I blame Mentat for their decision. :-)
You kept closer track of it than we did. We stuck our toe in the water 3-4 years ago, found it not to be to our liking, and then dropped it. So we did not even notice that Mentat stopped supporting NT STREAMS.
Anybody want to port LiS to Win XP :) And what good would it do?
