I am working on a project for Warpstock '99 to have
more vendors and shareware authors represented,
even if they can not come to the show in person.

The vendor response to my project is much better than I
expected, and I need help. I need a few good men and women
who are coming to Warpstock ( and who isn't? ) and are
willing to spend a couple hours each day at one of our
demonstration booths showing the products from four
vendors.

In exchange for their time, the demonstrators will receive,
direct from the vendors themselves, full licenses for the
applications they demonstrate. Some of the vendors and
applications we are representing and demonstrating are The
Graham Utilities, PMFax, Priority Master II, PMview (V2.0!)
and a host of others.

No experience is necessary, only a willingness to meet
a lot of great friends and play with some cool software.

You need not apply in person, simply send an email to:
Tom Stevic <stevic@ibm.net> and indicate your desire
to be part of this project.

The project is not officially connected with Warpstock,
Inc., or the Warpstock Event team. It is simply an effort
by a regular guy ( me ) to have a lot more applications I
can drool over next October.

           Press Release - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
____________________________________________________________



             The OS/2 Topics At Warp Expo West


  No matter what your interests, no matter what your needs,
you'll miss important information if you miss Warp Expo
West.

  Take a look at some of what you'll get on show day,
September 18:

  MULTIMEDIA AND GRAPHICS:  An entire OS/2-based home
entertainment center -- video capture and playback, audio,
editing, CD audio transfers to your hard drive and back
again, format conversions -- on stage with multimedia expert
Jerry Rash, and he'll show you the utilities to use
(including the free ones), the drivers you'll need, and how
to set up the OS/2-based multimedia system of your dreams!
And Don Baker, the expert on inkjet printing, will show you
how to get images that look like photographs (we've seen him
do it!) from your inkjet printer.

  ROUNDTABLE:  The roundtable discussion titled "IBM:  The
New Strategy To Control The Worldwide Desktop" with Peter
Coffee of PC Week, Esther Schindler of Sm@rt Reseller and
Alan Zeichick of Camden Associates (and OS/2 Magazine's
former Editor-In-Chief) is guaranteed to give you an
eye-opening insight into the good things and bad that lie
ahead for OS/2.  These three careers filled with experience
and insight will fill the auditorium with crucial
information you'll need for planning your OS/2 future.

  NETWORKING:  Networking guru Steve Schiffman will present
"Designing Your Home Network", including connecting your
machines together, installing the drivers, the available
software (some of it free), and using just one internet
connection to service all of your networked machines.  Then
Hugh Dashbach and Michael Elliott will showcase Linux And
OS/2, a demonstration of how to make these two very
different operating systems work seamlessly together.

  WEB SITES:  Two XML sessions by Bill Schindler, Editor of
OS/2 Extended Attributes, will bring you quickly up to speed
on this new language of the internet and get you started on
writing your own XML pages.  Plus Web Site Management and
Netscape Composer Development seminars from Dr. Virginia
Hetrick cover the problems that web site administrators
face, the solutions, management of growth, and the
fast-track approach to creating great looking web pages
using the free Netscape Composer.

  DATABASES:  Relational databases from the basics to the
exotic are thoroughly covered by Randell Flint, President of
Sundial Systems.  Use the knowledge you gain at this seminar
to design your own relational database systems and expand
the ones you work with now.

  IBM:  Flying in from Austin, Texas is Steven King, IBM's
Development Manager for Network Computing, plus other IBMers
including Dennis Sposato of the Rapid Deployment Team.
Steven will show IBM's new Warp Server for e-Business,
TCP/IP enhancements, Domino and Java server improvements,
WorkSpace On-Demand server-managed clients plus the
Windows32 feature for WorkSpace On-Demand, and Warp Server
features like the Journaling File System, the Logical Volume
Manager, WebSphere, NT Server management, and products from
IBM's Network Computing Software Division covering XML,
Java, SecureWay, Year2000 and a wide variety of other
important subjects.  Dennis will present the new
Pre-Execution Services features including dynamic MAC
addressing, remotely controlled boot manager, and booting to
the LAN without a boot chip on the network card.

  BIG GAMES:  Warped Jeopardy!  Matching wits with the OS/2
elite on a stage of dreams, this real-life show will be
hosted by the talented President of a major OS/2 software
house.  Reserved seating is free, and it's first-come
first-served.

  SERVERS:  Web Server Performance and Scalability by Robert
Chapman of the Institute of Advanced Development Strategies
covers what you need to know about response times, file I/O
and communication bottlenecks, the constraints of the
operating system, platform issues, the effect on performance
of various programs including Active Server Pages and
Dynamic HTML, and the new Application Server architectures.

  JAVA:  Ron Lamb, a Software Developer for Cisco Systems,
teaches two Java classes covering the JDK, language
concepts, the tools and resources you can use, the
differences between the Java versions, new Java2 features,
performance, design decisions, development of server-based
Java applications, and this year's JavaOne Conference.

  ADVOCACY:  Come listen to Lynn Maxson, whose Warpicity
project (complete with specialized smart tools like his
Developer's Assistant) replaces the current development
cycle and drives ideas straight to machine code.  Kernels,
drivers and application programs all flow from his
methodolgy, and you'll learn the current project status at
this most important lecture.

  COMMUNICATIONS:  Dave Watson covers visual internet-based
communications like CUSeeMe down through instant messaging,
chat, newsgroups and mail lists, all OS/2 based and all used
today in business, government, education and home office.

  MATHEMATICS AND ENGINEERING:  Researchers like Ben Archer
and Michael "Rocky" Rakijas need powerful tools when they
work, and they use Octave for signal analysis, curve fitting
and the rest of their daily number crunching.  Fast
solutions and tricks of the trade are covered in this vital
seminar.

  PROGRAMMING:  Plenty of programming topics await you,
including Melanie Chernoy's REXX Programming Potpourri
covering everything from REXX basics through stem variables,
parsing, and using VREXX2 to add windows, dialogs and menus
to your REXX programs.  Developer Stan Shantar then shows
you how to push the limit with his two sessions on Using
REXX And C Together, carefully explaining the exact methods
(many undocumented) you can use to allow each language to do
what it does best.  And international consultant Steven
Levine presents "How To Write a Workplace Shell Class"
including how to subclass existing desktop objects so you
can leverage the Workplace Shell's functionality into your
own programs, how to build your own Workplace Shell objects,
and a full plate of development and debugging techniques.

  Every one of these seminars is free, and you don't want to
miss this all-inclusive day.  We have the presentations you
want - at Warp Expo West!

                           - - -

  Warp Expo West admission is free.  The show will be held
on September 18 near Disneyland in sunny Southern
California.  All the info is at

           Press Release - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
____________________________________________________________



       Peter Coffee, Esther Schindler, Alan Zeichick
            Morning Session At Warp Expo West !!


  "IBM:  The New Strategy To Control The Worldwide Desktop"
is now scheduled for a 10:15 a.m. start.  Roundtable guests
Peter Coffee, Esther Schindler and Alan Zeichick will heat
the auditorium walls with their own thoughts and insights -
guaranteed to reflect on the future of OS/2 - and the
audience can heat up these three journalists' chairs when
questions are taken from the floor.

  Peter Coffee is the Technology Editor at giant PC Week, a
journalist, book author, OS/2 user and first recipient of
OS/2 Professional magazine's annual Media Excellence award.

  Esther Schindler is Technology Editor at Sm@rt Reseller, a
journalist and book author as well, an OS/2 user, and
Program Chair for POSSI, the world's largest OS/2 user
group.

  Alan Zeichick brainstormed OS/2 Magazine into existence at
Miller Freeman and was Editor-In-Chief there for four years,
a writer of more than 575 published articles, and a trade
show speaker at Comdex, PC Expo and The OS/2 World
Conference and Exhibition.

  These three industry experts will discuss IBM's new
corporate presence, a presence based on new products
centered squarely on OS/2, and the ramifications if IBM's
strategy wins -- or loses.

  _You_ will be part of this historic session when you
attend Warp Expo West!

                           - - -

  Warp Expo West will be held on September 18 near
Disneyland in sunny Southern California.  All the info is at

As you may know OS/2 Netlabs is working on the OS/2 port of the well
known Opera webbrowser (http://www.operasoftware.com). Currently we
have two people in the team but we need a third one.
We will do the port with support of Odin32, the new Win32-API
implementation for OS/2 (http://www.netlabs.org/odin/).

You should have know how in:

- OS/2 PM Programming
- OS/2 TCP/IP Stack
- Win32-API (not really necessary but it helps)
- you should be able to work over the internet (also together with the
Odin Team)

We get a percent ammount of money per sold OS/2 license, so you will
get money, but don't expect thousands of dollars :-)

If you think you are the right person for this job, please send an
email with a short description of your know how to me (Adrian Gschwend 
<ktk@netlabs.org>).

Thanks for your support

Adrian Gschwend

           Press Release - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
____________________________________________________________



        Connect OS/2 And Linux At Warp Expo West !!


  You'll see OS/2 and Linux running seamlessly together,
connected on the same network and using each other's files
when you join us at Warp Expo West.

  When you need to add to your network and don't want to
dedicate an entire OS/2 machine, Linux can come in handy.
"It's a decent file and printer server for OS/2 and other
desktop systems," says Hugh Daschbach, one of the two
OS/2-Linux lecturers, "and it provides a rock solid server
platform for mail, news, or web service."

  In this extensive seminar you'll be shown how to install
Linux as a second operating system on an OS/2 machine, how
to access HPFS partitions with Linux and the new HPFS
functionality expected in Linux 2.4, running Samba to
provide LAN Manager networking services for file and printer
sharing, accessing Linux files from the OS/2 client, using
Linux as the server, the Linux configuration screens for
setting up your networking capabilities, disk partitioning
considerations when using Linux and Linux with OS/2, dual
booting with LILO, implementing the X Window system, and the
X Window software packages available.

  Hugh Daschbach and Michael Elliott are both seasoned OS/2
users, and both are also members of the Unix Users
Association of Southern California.  Together they will
showcase the methods involved in combining these two very
different operating systems into one robust network.

  Daschbach is a software engineer at Cisco Systems, and
Elliott develops on JavaOS at Sun Microsystems.  Their
combined knowledge will enhance any network and will add
functionality to your future networks.

  You _will_ learn how to connect these two platforms when
you attend Warp Expo West!

                           - - -

  Warp Expo West is free and will be held on September 18
near Disneyland in sunny Southern California.

Hi, 

today I have uploded a new version of CopyWave on my homepage.
http://home.t-online.de/home/C.Arnold

The program copies parts from an existing PCM-Wave file starting 
from an indicated place in an indicated length into a new Wave file. 
The files can be very big.

Now is the buffer size configurable.
Additional can CopyWave now copying asynchron, one thread readed, 
another thread write. This is useful if copy from one physical HD to 
another physical HD. This can increase the speed of copying.

The program ist Freeware.
Direct URL is:

regards
   Carsten Arnold
