Free Warp City Auctions (from Tim Martin)
Warp City has opened a new 'open to the public' online auction program that is every bit as feature laden as eBay - if not more so. And ALL OS/2 users can post their OS/2 software, hardware and other items there for FREE! We're not handing this offer out willy nilly and if you want to spread your OS/2 stuff around and make a little money while you do it - then head to Warp City Auctions today!
We're offering regular "eBay-type" auctions with all the eBay amenities - as auctions you won't see at eBay like: "Silent Auctions" (these are cool, bids are not publicized so no one knows until the auction is over when all bids are revealed) "Reverse Auctions" (another cool auction - sellers start the bidding high and it goes down, not up! and "Vendor or Multi-Item Auctions" where anyone can post a variety of items, price them, and sell them directly online!
You can have your own auction web page to design and it will automatically list your own auctions. We are fully automated with 'but it now' buttons, attention grabbers, bold listings, and an "auction of the moment" feature. You get a super "User Control Panel" to manage your auctions, information, web pages, and more. And it's all free to the OS/2 user!
No other OS/2 Web Site is offering this great service! And hey, you can auction off ANYTHING (well, as long as it is legal). How to get your free status: Go to Warp City and register (you can change your password to anything you want, select a clever user name/alias) then send me an email using an OS/2 browser or emailer. I'll adjust your auction account so you never have to pay for listing or posting any auction items and you can load on all the extra options (list it in our feature picture gallery, add an animated attention grabber, more). Warp City Auctions are always free to OS/2 buyers and sellers.
You can't beat this deal guys. We do it because we are devoted to OS/2 and we want to see every OS/2 user get a chance to use the best OS/2 software and hardware available to them. Check us out before we get too busy!

Sibyl RAD tool for Pascal development (from Adrian Gschwend)
Some of you might now the Sibyl Pascal development tool. It provides a Delphi-Like RAD Interface, creating a PM application in Pascal becomes quite easy like this. However, Sibyl is quite out of date now and it also has bugs which most probably won't be fixed in the future. Because the sourcecode of the RAD-Tool itself is available (at least parts of it as far as I know) we think about porting it to another pascal compiler (VPascal might be an option which is an excellent compiler).
This is not that easy but it should be possible. If you are a pascal developer (and even better a Sibyl user) with some spare time please let me know, we need help to get it to work. Like this we can create a new project for this.
