How are we doing? If you've upgraded from Frontier 5.1.4 to 5.1.5, did we fix important bugs? Is it performing better? Are you using guest databases? What features are you looking for in Frontier 6 and beyond?

David Carter-Tod: winDialog suite. Design dialogs in Visual Basic that run in Frontier.

WebL: A programming language for the web.

http://www.powerasp.com/.

Learning systems are a hot topic again. I wrote about this almost a year ago in a DaveNet piece. That's when I realized that to grow to a new level we needed a better networked writing environment. That has been the central focus for Frontier 6.

Josh Buchanan reports problems with MSIE/Mac 4.5 and Frontier 5.1.5 and menu sharing.

If you are Frontier-savvy and live in or close to Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, please contact Jim Roepcke.

InfoWorld: Microsoft goes after Jini. "Universal Plug and Play" is based on TCP and XML.

Wired: Palo Alto's Printer's Inc is shutting down, a victim of online book buying. I have to admit I haven't bought a book at Printer's Inc in a long time. Will Kepler's be the next to go? No! Please!

Reuters: 45 Billion Galaxies Discovered, thanks to the Hubble space telescope. And they said it was a waste of money!
