  23. I am aware that OS/2 is widely perceived as fading into obscurity.
  24. My own observations have yet to support this (number of OS/2 users
  25. seems to be growing slowly).
  26.  
  27. >Nevertheless, we do plan to release a new product for OS/2 shortly.  Watch
  28. >this newsgroup, and the appropriate OS/2 newsgroups, for announcements.

  30. Thanks for the continued support.  I'm a happy user of 5A (191),
  31. as I've been of previous Kermit releases since about 1983.
