Yes, but I heard that OS2 is coming out with a new service, an answer
to both Java and Dylan and the partridge in a pear tree.  It's
called Latte'Latte'OxNFree. The service has no features yet, and 
there are no plans to add any, but just *thinking* about it could
cause Bill Gates's head to explode.

No announcement on any library applications so far.

Season's greetings!
