It's great to see how far it's came. Here's some things I noticed: When running the Fractal drawing program under Executor 1.1, it took about 10 seconds to draw the fractal (redrawing it after bringing up the about screen), and it took 14 seconds under Executor 1.99q11. Doesn't sound too good, especially considering how the documentation said that 2.0 would be twice as fast.. I also played around a little with it, trying to see if Browser would work under 1.1, got no success (didn't really expect success either :^) These aren't bugs but I'm just letting people know the results of what I did playing around with both versions some..
