Oops! I'd actually intended this to be a private mail to Florent, and realized its destination about three seconds after hitting Ctrl-E to send the message. I didn't want this to be public knowledge until our team here had come to a decision about support and we had prepared an official statement. I'm not prepared to discuss this more publicly right now. If this concerns you, I'd encourage you to make your wish for continued Mac OS hosting support in the Palm OS tools known through official MW channels -- a full list is posted at http://www.metrowerks.com/mw/About/Contact.htm. -- Ben Combee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> CodeWarrior for Palm OS technical lead Palm OS programming help @ www.palmoswerks.com -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
