- Glad to have you back.

- Frozen since you last were around, as far as I know.

-
- Fifteen dollars for the PDK CD-ROM (or for the 2.1 beta CD-ROM, for
- that matter). Joining the DAP is free. Best way to join the DAP is
- to type GO OS2DAP on CompuServe. Best way to order the CD-ROM (in the
- U.S.) is to call 800-3-IBM-OS2.

-
- XR06055 base, not sure about C Set/2, not sure about Toolkit, not sure
- about Workframe/2, TCP/IP depends on the modules. All CSDs are
- available via anonymous ftp from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu.

-
- The file prgcsd.zip, available via anonymous ftp from ftp-os2.nmsu.edu
- (check file /pub/os2/00Index for location) seems to have what you're
- after. It looks like IBM finally got around to doing it.
