- According to some NewTeker whose name escapes me at the LAVTUG/NewTek
- special showing Saturday after the Commodore show, Ron Thornton has
- really been pushing them hard for things he needs/wants in LW 3.0.
- While he was not able to tell us the stuff that will be in 3.0, of
- course, he did say that there will be a completely LW created scene
- in (I seem to recall) the pilot episode which would be just incredible.
- Absolutely NO clues as to what this might be, though.
-
- As LW 3.0 is slated for a December release (that's only set in mud at
- this point) hopefully we'll get the capabilities before seeing the show.
