That's the real sticking point here, IMHO. An open-sourced version of Mif2Go for Mac/Unix could be ported back to XP, and then where's the incentive to buy it from Omsys at all? I'd hate to torpedo the whole idea, especially since I'd be keenly interested in a Mac version of Mif2Go -- Free or otherwise. But Jeremy is one of the good guys & I'd hate even more to see his income dry up. -- Larry Kollar, Senior Technical Writer, ARRIS "Content creators are the engine that drives value in the information life cycle." -- Barry Schaeffer, on XML-Doc ** To unsubscribe, send a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx ** ** with "unsubscribe framers" (no quotes) in the body. **
