Coming soon...Booch Components (not an April Fool's joke! :-)

[David Weller]

Well, after too many months of fighting with my previous ISP, I 
finally gave up on them ever fixing my inability to post to 
comp.lang.ada.  As you can see, I have a new e-mail address.

I'm please to report that the first release of the Booch Components
are almost complete, a release will DEFINITELY be out in the next
couple of weeks (provided no more compiler or component bugs are found
:-).  The next two weeks will be occupied with me frantically trying
to get the Booch Component documentation up and running in HTML
format, with nice links directly to the latest version of the code (if you
want to just browse the sources, you won't have to download them that
way).

I can't begin to say what a relief it is to get these done.  I'm glad
that the design stabilized around the same time that the compiler
technology is stabilizing.  I've been enormously lucky to have the
helpful advice from folks like Tom Quiggle at SGI, Ed Falis at Aonix,
Tucker Taft at Intermetrics, and RObert Dewar and folks at ACT.  And,
of course, Brad Balfour, who probably made me defend my design
decisions more than anybody (Thanks, Brad!).

Watch this newsgroup for more details! (The announcement will also be
posted to Team Ada and comp.sw.components, as well as the Booch
Components homepage at www.rivatech.com).
