RFD: comp.binaries.ms-windows.delphi
------------------------------------
Mark Williamson <ome...@sisna.com> has posted a Request
For Discussion (RFD) for a moderated internet newsgroup
dedicated to publishing Delphi binary files.
An RFD is the first step in forming a new newsgroup.
During the discussion phase, people raise and resolve
objections. Here are some typical kinds of questions to
get you started:
- Who needs another binary newsgroup, anyway? they
waste bandwidth!
- Who is this Mark character? and why should we let him
moderate the newsgroup?
Now's your chance to have some input into this process.
The original RFD was posted to news.announce.newsgroups.
Discussion should be directed to news.groups.
If there's any interest, the next step will be a Call
For Votes (CFV). Stay tuned...

Author's Query (follow up)

Many thanks to those of you who expressed interest in being
guinea pigs for my forthcoming book on Java. I've got the
requisite number of complete Java novices at this point
(this is a beginner's book).
