- This is one of the hot issues in NeXT third party developer land.
-
- There is a concerted effort to describe the advantages to NeXT and to
- product developers about supporting (in some fashion that works) the
- availability of the run-time stuff and development tools NeXT has developed
- on other platforms. By development tools I don't mean AppKit and
- Interface Builder (someday, maybe) but the necessary linking and format
- stuff.
-
- Please, if you have something to add beyond porting of apps, expanded
- market, and such then email your most cogent arguement or post it. It will
- get into the best channels for trying to make this happen.
