I can not do this simply because I am corporate Intranet user and our Company Intranet is protected by the firewall from external world. So it is closed for access from Internet. Only Company WEB Server is accessible (www.oxy.com) that contain general Company info. I think that almost all companies protect themselves in such way. Just posting such kind of info does not make any sense. It will be once read, and then you will never find it again (little exaggeration of course but close to reality). As a matter of fact I sent some useful links to people that needed help (just look at the thread "double linked lists). Another one was to the Adaptive Communication Environment (ACE) created by Douglas C. Schmidt which is Associate Professor and Director of the Center for Distributed Object Computing in the Department of Computer Science in Washington University in Saint Louis (http://siesta.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE.html) . I would like see it to be implemented in Ada 95. There is need of some kind of ready to use universal communication components. The other thing comes to my mind also. Just imagine that Microsoft would react the same way for [potential] users needs. Would it have such success? Would it help to promote Microsoft products? Just look at the Microsoft WEB . You will find links to huge amount of free, shareware and commercial software written for MS-Windows. This is extremely convenient. They know what they are doing and why.
