ENVELOP is the tool, the Corps is cool. 

Envelop is the FREE, familiar object oriented RAD tool for Microsoft Windows '95 and NT.
It is the only RAD tool specifically designed to help you participate in the exploding
componentware marketplace as a provider as well as a consumer. Envelop's open architecture
makes it easy to build objects using Basic, Windows DLLs, VBX controls, and OLE 2.0 servers.
But most importantly, Envelop is the platform at the heart of the Enveloper Corps, a
revolutionary new community of high-technologists developing technology and tools for their
mutual benefit. 

The Enveloper Corps is an electronic community designed to bring together the collective
genius of the Net. Organized around an electronic marketplace, its the place where you can
make the most out of your coolest code and earn money and recognition at the same time. The
Corps maintains and monitors technical forums as a way to constantly update and improve Envelop
and the Corps. We are looking for Corps members who are interested in helping to shape Envelop's
destiny. If you want to develop technology in an environment where you have maximum influence,
join the Corps. 

The Enveloper Corps is a response to dissatisfaction with the way large software companies are
developing, marketing, selling and servicing software. Currently, the world divides very sharply
between component producers, who have the time, money and resources to market their components,
and component users, most of whom would rather work with technology than market it. We think
there is a much better way to do business, one that increases the connections between the 
technologists who produce and consume components. We believe the best software is developed by
individuals designing and building components for customers they can talk to directly. 

If we are to succeed, we need your help. We need you to download Envelop, join the Corps and
then spread the word. We'll provide the community, the infrastructure, the platform and the
support. Together we can build a new way to market technology to technologists. A market of,
by, and for software developers. Who needs Armani anyway?
