New shipdate for Frontier 5.0: January 30.

I've been emailing with Sun's Bill Joy about Java. I'd say based on his responses there isn't much chance that Sun will change their licensing policies anytime soon.

Sun: What is Java?

Hey I'm back from Palm Springs. Had a wonderful time, so many smart people, the energy was just like the CNET conference in New Orleans in October. The session on Automating Content Management with Frontier 5 went well. The slide show was fine, the product performed flawlessly, but I got flustered, and the demo was awkward! Oh well. People seemed to understand the product anyway. Onward!

The slide show from yesterday's demo, looks best if you can zoom your browser up to full screen.

Finally, hearty thank you to Microsoft! So many coool people. I felt really welcome at their developer conference. It was fun!

I'm checking on the status of the Frontier 5 shipment this afternoon.
