Has everyone seen this ? Plus remember a few weeks ago when Bellsouth reported 50% lying by vendors. We need to remember the reason you cannot be lulled by all theses compliance articles is this is all on the honor system and with so much at stake don't count on honesty.

More vendors reverse Y2K readiness status
By Stacy Collett

The number of software products reversing their Y2K-ready status is going up, not down, according to
one year 2000 compliance-tracking firm.
In July, vendors for half of the 125 software
products evaluated made "negative" changes (58%) to their
Y2K-ready status. That means the manufacturer has
discontinued Y2K support or has released previously
unknown Y2K issues.
That's much higher than the 33% average for this year
and was unexpected because more businesses are
nearing the final stages of year 2000 remediation,
said officials at Infoliant Corp., a Pittsburgh-based Y2K
compliance-tracking firm.

Products with Y2K status changes include Adobe
Acrobat Distiller V.3, AutoDesk's Drafix and Planix
product lines, Lotus Organizer and several Computer
Associates VSE utilities, Infoliant said.
