Dear OS/2/eComStation user,
VOICE is pleased to announce there will be an IRC speakup about Maul
Publisher. The speakup is with Peter Koller who is the developer of
Maul
Publisher. Have not heard of Maul Publisher yet ?
Maul Publisher is an industrial strength desktop publisher capable of
creating virtually all of the printing seen on everyday household
items.
You can use it to easily lay out newspapers, cards, books, labels,
stamps,
posters, charts, forms, and even designs like building plans or
furniture
arrangements.

What is a SpeakUp? Well, it's organized via IRC (Internet Relay Chat).
On
an IRC SpeakUp you will get a chance to talk to software developers,
for
instance. The person/organization/company invited for the SpeakUp will
give a short introduction about himself and the product or project they
work on. And then the real part of the SpeakUp starts! You can ask
questions! If you like the information exchange at Warpstock
(www.warpstock.org), then you will like VOICE SpeakUps (depending on
the
subject, of course).
We will try and organize SpeakUps every month on a subject of interest.
What is new, is that SpeakUps will be organized twice. The first VOICE
SpeakUp will this time be targeted at the Asia and Australia. The
second
meeting will be targeted at the United States and Europe. This
targeting
will be accomplished by the timing of the IRC to suit the locale.
The first speakup on Maul Publisher will be on Sunday the 23 April at
the
following times is targetted at Asia and Australia and *starts* on :
Sunday April 23, 09:00 GMT
Sunday April 23, 11:00 CET (Paris,Europe)
Sunday April 23, 18:00 JST (Tokyo/Japan)
