Yesterday I posted to both these lists an excerpt from Scripting News that contained a pretty basic error. I said that the W in NGWS stood for Windows, however, reading the Microsoft site this morning I came across this piece: http://msdn.microsoft.com/Events/tewebcast/agenda/mon.asp "William (Bill) H. Gates, chairman and chief software architect of Microsoft Corporation will share Microsoft's vision for the programmable Web, and outline Microsoft's strategy for Next Generation Web Services (NGWS) that will simplify the development of enterprise Web applications." But I'm not totally crazy, at one point the W did stand for Windows: http://www.microsoft.com/PressPass/press/2000/jan00/final25anv.htm "Gates and Ballmer preview strategy to transform company around Internet User Experience and Next Generation Windows Services." This is good news, hopefully the vision will live up to the name. DaveReceived on Thursday, 1 June 2000 06:01:10 GMT
