Andi, Many many thanks for keeping your eyes open, I somehow missed this email! <rf>
I just sent the following reply: --------------------------------------- Hi Ross, 1. Our project is: Portable implementation of the Clipper/xBase language (Compiler & complete Run-time libraries), and offers many modern language extensions, and extensive Run-time libraries. 2. We should win because: While the xBase language may [currently] be a lower profile, it's still one of the most complete, robust, portable, and open source development platforms. Our project has been actively developed over the last 8 years, and is maintained by dozens of contributors all over the globe, against all odds (lack of xBase awareness/popularity). 3. Attached please find a small logo. By tomorrow I should be able to email 640x480 or bigger version. 4. Sadly we don't have such video. 5. I'm the project founder. 6. Yes I may be contacted by your public relations team. Thanks for the opportunity.
