Subject: Lotus AMI Pro 2.00 wrongly shipped COMMDLG.DLL from 6/14/91…
Date: Thu, 17 Oct 91 17:48:05 PDT
Hi Cameron and Viktor - Apparently, Lotus wrongly shipped COMMDLG with
thier AMI Pro 2.00 product. They picked up the beta 1 COMMDLG which was
NOT included in the list of files available for redistribution. We need
to contact them, have them update to the beta 2 release of COMMDLG and
notify their customer base that they need to upgrade COMMDLG or they may
affect other software components that use COMMDLG.
We did not give them permission nor did they ask anyone here to include
COMMDLG with AMI Pro 2.00. They also ship OLECLI and OLESVR from beta 1
which is fine.
This issue was broght to my attention because it is affecting
OC/Windows. (JeffBe has more details if you want them)
Please look into this asap. If you have any questions, please let me
know.
Thanks,
Tim Brewer

I spoke to paul sherer yesterday. he asked about apm
and I told him we would be announcing it soon ; we’d
comment fully then. He also had the impression it would
ONLY work with rom dos.

Well …
I hadn’t exactly meant to put it across
that way,
but …
You hit the nail on the head.

This is a very important point. We need to create the reputation
for problems and incompatibilies to undermine confidence
in drdos6; so people will make judgements against it without
knowing details or fats. it’s will be tricky to do;
we should dig up as many user stories as possible. compare
drdow6 to dos4; ibm has expereince will building bad/incompat
dos’s.
we should think how we can get this down.
(done).

I don’t understand this mail, brad. it doesn’t say
anything about file transfer. It amkes it seem like power
manager ONLY works with ROM DOS. That’s VERY confusing.
We should make it very clear that all the pieces work
with DISK-BASED ms-dos too.
In addition, we should ask rayka where all the oem’s are
for rom dos? we got lots of rather nasty mail from
him about our mistakes; i’d like to know where the customers
are now.

Cool, sound like comdex is windex for real…that’s
GREAT! I started reading paul sherer’s article,
but didn’t finish…hope to finish tonight.
Some ISVs and OEMs got the spec, I can find the
exact list if thats important.
On the issue of what to ship, we have some talking
to do. Disk space is looking pretty grim for adding
much at all. Are we absolutely hardcore about not
adding another disk. The AGFA guys were here today
and talked about how many fonts are in PCL 5
printers. They claim 26.5 million fonts in printers,
just counting CG Times and Universe. Shipping a TrueType
version of those would certainly be great for a large %
of Windows users.
See ya when you get back.

6/14/91…
I’ll give them a call tomorrow (Thursday.) FYI, I have experimented with
this, and it does seem to overwrite a newer version of the DLL - ie, it
left my beta II version of COMMDLG intact.
If I’m correct (I will verify with Lotus,) than there should be no problem
with OC/Win - let me know if you have different data (essentially, I need
to determine the urgency/gravity of the problem, as AMI has shipped
already.)
thx, viktor
