- We're working on our own stripped-down finder-like app which we'll
- release for free. Sadly, Apple's Finder almost certainly won't work
- under Executor. In the past we've avoided working on that for legal
- reasons, but we've now decided that we are going to pursue a plan that
- will let users drop in Apple's System 7.5 and get great compatibility.
- No small feat, but this plan has become more practical now that our
- improved 68040 emulator could emulate 68k toolbox code at high speeds.
-
- As a side note, some of the questions and bug reports I've seen on the
- executor mailing list should probably just be sent to
- questions@ardi.com or bugs@ardi.com instead of to everyone on the
- executor mailing list. So before you post, consider whether it's the
- sort of thing many people might be interested in. Personally I think
- that most people would like to see things like reports about what
- works and what doesn't, but no one policy will make everyone happy.

- I'm really pleased how understanding people have been with the
- experimental 1.99x releases; I feared that more people would complain
- about how rough around the edges they are, but instead we're getting
- lots of bug reports, constructive criticism, and praise. Thanks!
