Subject: 1996 Issue 3 of IBM Solution Developer Program (SDP) News
Announcing 1996 Issue 3 of IBM* Solution Developer Program News
(SDPN6C), in ASCII format. This issue prints 84 pages on an IBM 3820

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO READERS:
Issue 3 is the final issue of SDPnews in its current form. The IBM
Solution Developer Program will now provide its news via the World Wide
Web at URL http://www.developer.ibm.com . Many news items published in
SDPnews are made available on a more timely basis on our Web page. The
Web also lets readers link to related information, and it offers a way
to respond interactively to some news items.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Produced monthly and distributed electronically by the IBM Solution
Developer Operations (SDO) organization, SDPnews gives members of IBM's
Solution Developer Program the latest information about all the IBM
