- Hi Folks,
-
- With us not yet having gotten all the 2.0 features implemented, and
- with Windows '95 coming out on August 26th, we have decided to delay
- Hackathon II a little bit, and hence push the beta period and the 2.0
- release date further into the future.
-
- Hackathon I is almost half over. When Cotton returns to Boston, he'll
- work on completing as many pending features as possible. Mat will
- work on the NEXTSTEP port and also help me and the DJGPP V2 people
- make sense out of all the bugs we introduced with E/D 1.99n/1.99o. No
- matter how much pain associated with installing it, we'll get Warp
- installed in house for testing, and probably Windows NT as well.
-
- When it looks like we're two weeks from finishing adding all the new
- functionality and finishing finding and fixing all the DOS mystery
- bugs, we'll schedule Hackathon II, which will be another two weeks,
- and the beta period will be the six weeks beyond that.
-
- We apologize for slipping once again, but we can't go beta until all
- the features are present and all the major bugs eradicated, and even
- if we could, it would make no sense to go beta before Windows '95 is
- on the shelf.
-
- It looks like even though it's a bit late, 2.0 will be received very
- well as a shrink wrapped product. *Then*, with money to hire more
- engineers, you'll see *amazing* progress out of team ARDI.
