This has been a quiet month for the OS/2 community, however we
still manage to keep us busy in this meeting. First off, Recruit's
interview with us is out already and we heard favorite reviews.
For all of you who missed the paper version, see
http://www.recruitonline.com/rmag/0209.htm
It has already been a big pain to display Chinese under OS/2, and it
looks like there is no simple solution to it. We will take a look at
options in using Chinese under OS/2 as it has been discussed in our
mailing list for quite some time.
Emmanuel will be demonstrating WinFrame, the solution to run
Windows applications in OS/2. This has been used in some private
sectors like Hong Kong Bank where mixed apps must be supported.
Also, we are going to build a server for ourselves which includes a
mailing list and a web server. Derek has already made an arrangement
with a company that can provide us an IP addr and a little office
space (in Wanchai) for the server. Details on that later.
