There was no real reaction to this suggestion. I wonder why the resonance was not bigger. (maybe all of you were at the beach ;-) We have done in Moscow (in coorporation with MEPHI) 3 (I think) usefull components clusters. - a TIME_DATE cluster - a FORMAT cluster - a CONTAINER cluster I know that there is a need of independant clusters - and so I wonder what to do. Either Nice can start such activity or - of not - we will put the libraries into a FTP server and announce it to comp.lang.eiffel But I see a good starting point to give something to Nice - maybe you remember there was a association "DECUS". You could get many usefull programs from them if you were a member. Why not do the same with Nice ? At least Nice will be more powerfull (whatever this is) with more members. Is there someone who wants to work as a "Librarian ?" I would be happy about some resonance - even if its negative. In this case we will go the way outlined above. -- Frieder Monninger fm@fm.rhein-main.de 35619 Braunfels-Altenkirchen ++ 49 6472 1449 Germany http://www.rhein-main.de/people/frieder/fm.htm
