I. Extension for submissions: NeXTSTEP Object Catalog - June 9, 1992
Due to popular demand, we are extending the deadline for submissions
to the NeXTSTEP Object Catalog until midnight Tuesday, June 9, 1992.
Dear NeXTSTEP Object Designers:
In July of this year, NeXT will publish the first-ever "object"
guide. The guide will promote all the fantastic NeXTSTEP objects
currently available, both commercially and through the public domain.
At the same time, it will help educate customers and the entire
industry about the benefits of NeXTSTEP objects and object-oriented
technology.
NeXT is clearly the object-oriented leader: NeXTSTEP is the only
object-oriented system software shipping today. To get the word out,
we'd like to release an outstanding guide filled with descriptions of
the objects written by developers and users alike.
That's where we'd like your help.
You can leave an indelible mark on the NeXTSTEP object community by
submitting descriptions of your objects for listing in our guide.
It's simple. Just complete the attached form and return it to
slove@next.com by Tuesday, June 9, 1992.
Your submission(s) will then appear in it, which will reach thousands
of current and prospective NeXTSTEP users and developers throughout
the world.
So get your listings to us today, and help spread the word about
NeXTSTEP objects. If you are not currently developing NeXTSTEP
objects but know people who are, please forward this message on to
them. Please use the template provided below for your submissions.
