  Joe,

   seriously ... not sure what you mean by a *radical change*.
   I am trying to do my work with g++ and report the problems
   that I am encountering. I did get some very good help from the
   list in most cases.
   
   OTOH, I will be perfectly happy with *your* not replying to my messages,
   primarily because you are seem to be typing them in hurry and the answers
   are rarely helpful.

   As to the Cabal and profuse apology... if someone took this seriously,
   I do apologize. I know that people are generally doing a good job, 
   mostly for free...

   The main thing that I've trying to convey (and many agreed to this already)
   is that the New Jersey approach is not a good approach for the late 90s,
   i.e., the balance between fundamental development and user convenience is
   significantly different.  If you haven't learnt anything from looking at
   the success of M$, the failing of OS/2 etc etc (or are saying that "we are
   different")... I really have nothing left to say. 

   The particular application of the above to the recent inquiries ---
   I do not know where exactly I was wrong and where the g++ developers
   forgot to plug something (e.g. man pages!). I know that I tried several
   things, in good faith, several times, giving it some thought .. etc etc.
   The replies that I got did not even honor reading my mail carefully.
   Hence, the attitude. Technically, it's cheaper to pay a hundred $$ for KAI
   and be happy with it, rather than waste time on such discussions.
 
   Cheers,
   
								Igor
