We have been very very busy answering telephone calls for all of our products that were purchased during the Christmas season.
The good news for us is that this means we had a lot of good sales.

The bad news is that we are completely swamped with calls, and would likely still be swamped even if we three times the number of people.

This may affect our ability to help out our business customers.
We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused, and we thank you for understanding the situation.

We are working on getting back to people as quickly as possible.

With Several Specs Complete, XML Enters Widespread Development

"With most of the core XML specifications complete or nearly so, the industry will enter a new phase in 1999: building real-world applications that take advantage of XML. By year's end, users can expect XML support in applications, authoring tools, and most important, browsers.

The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) completed several XML specifications in 1998, including the core XML specification, Level 1 of the Document Object Model (DOM), and XML Namespaces. Now, the W3C is pursuing a number of initiatives to round out XML's functionality, and the industry is moving toward a widespread release of XML applications.

Most visibly, both Microsoft and Netscape are adding XML and DOM support to their version 5.0 browsers. Browser support is an important milestone for XML's adoption, said Tim Bray, an invited expert to the W3C who has worked on several XML specifications.

By the end of this year, "We should have production-quality XML-capable browsers," Bray said.

On the authoring side, Macromedia's new Dreamweaver 2.0 includes basic XML support, as will Microsoft's upcoming FrontPage 2000. SoftQuad has announced an XML editor, XMetal, due out in the first quarter of this year. Authoring tools are also available from companies, such as ArborText, familiar in the SGML world..."
