OS/2 Netlabs updated (from Adrian Gschwend)
After a very long time I finally found the time to update the OS/2 Netlabs with a brand new design and a great database backend. I will still include more features in the future but the most important part is updated: The projects. It will now be much more simple for me to update the projects so they should be much more up to date than the past month :-) Have a look at the pages and enjoy it, I will add more later, a lot of content is not yet in the database, this will change too. Oh yes, if you can't see the images your DNS-Server does not yet have the new DNS-Entries for images.netlabs.org and so on, this should change automatically after a few hours (in worst case it can take about
48 hours). And for sure we are always looking for some talented developers so get in contact with us if you are interested in joining OS/2 Netlabs!
BTW: The webserver is running OS/2 with Apache, MySQL and PHP3! Unfortunately the machine is quite old so it could be that it is slow but this will change in a few month, I should get some new hardware then.

Infoworld's take on Convenience Packs (from Steve Carr)
For a different (and very negatively written) account of what the new OS/2 "Convenience Packs" mean, check out this article on Infoworld.com. It implies that IBM is only releasing convenience packs to aid migration to Windows 2000.

The Register about status of OS/2 (from Achim Hasenmueller)
A very realistic view on the current status of OS/2 is available at The Register.
There are some errors about Odin, but overall it is a very good article. This is the total opposite of the ZDNet article recently.

OS2SS Mailing List Problem (also 'WarpCast') (from Ralph Cohen)
There appears to be a problem with delivery of the daily digests from some or all of the OS2SS hosted mailing lists. Subscribing to the 'immediate delivery' option seems to be the only solution right now. Hopefully, the editors of WarpCast will let us know when this problem has been fixed.

GNOME/2 Maillinglist (from Christoph Vogelbusch)
We have made a Maillinglist under egroups, named gnome-os2. This is supposed to be used for diskussing over progs (wich one should come next), bugs and questions about porting. Gnome/2 is the port of GNOME (www.gnome.org) wich is not only a Desktop Environment, but a large collection of Apps for every Kind of work. Gimp and gPhoto e.g. are part of this project. At the moment the ports only run under Xfree86OS/2, but with Everblue they will run under the PM in the Future. Attention: The eGroups-website is undergoing a fixer-upper until 6:00 PM PST Saturday April 1.
