- - Egbert, quelle est la résolution de ton vidéo-projecteur (beamer) ?
Non- Faut-il confirmer les réservations hôtelière, avant fin septembre ?
Non, il manque le trou dans les prises allemandes pour le troisième bâtonet. Nous avons des chrochets latérals pour mettre la terre. Il serait bon d'apporter une barre de prises. Je m'occupe d'un adaptateur.
- les prises électriques allemandes sont-elles les même qu'en France ?
Rick Kelly ne peut pas venir, il doit agir comme arbitre au football.- A t'on des nouvelles "sûres" de Rick Kelly, et de Vladimir Menkin ?
Les deux. On manque encore de contributions (toutefois, je pense que Mike Robinson apportera aussi quelque chose). Noter alors une autre contribution additionelle. Et si Régis trouve quand même le temps se préparer (j'espère les problèmes familiers ne soient pas trop dure, Règis!) sa contribution est ensuite toujours bienvenue. Régis tu viens quand même à Francfort ?- Régis ne pouvant plus assurer sa session, doit-on la prendre en charge, ou la remplacer ?
Oui, j'espere etre présent à Francfort.Et si Régis trouve quand même le temps se préparer (j'espère les problèmes familiers ne soient pas trop dure, Règis!) sa contribution est ensuite toujours bienvenue. Régis tu viens quand même à Francfort ?
Je lui ai mis ensemble tous les liens et des informations que j'ai et je les lui ai envoyés.Mike Robinson a écrit :Bien, il me semble, moi et ma femme Nancy, nous serons capable de venir à votre
convention en effet!
Par conséquent nous avons besoin de détails du voyage. Je lis des posts sur les newsgroups mais j'ai besoin d'info au sujet de pages de Web de convention etc.
Dommage!Mike Irwin a écrit :Hi Egbert,
I'm really sorry not to have been around. I've been working away from home since
July, and trying to get the most out of my weekends at home with my family; they're
far too short, as I leave home at 5 a.m. on Monday mornings and get home at about
7 p.m. on Friday night.
So, I've been somewhat absent.
This job lasts until the end of October, so I won't be able to come over after all (I
_was_ hoping, but things just haven't worked out).
Give me until Tuesday to see if I can get a paper together for you: if I can get some
things to work then maybe I'll be able to send you something you can present, but I'll
know by Tuesday. OK ?

Well, I thought it simple: One stream, if possible live, showing you present
your contribution. Only one screen.
To show slides (pp) we can use the second beamer to project the slides
apart. This requires a simple e-mail or ftp-transmission of the pp-file and
a 'human-synchronization' of your slides there over the ocean and here. I
guess it would be a good 'party-gag'.
I never tried a netmeeting before and am very curious how to get it work,
and I like new experiences.

Mike,

Maybe, given the time difference (6 hours) you should have everybody at the
dinner table and wire the live part to a number of computer monitors, so
everyone sees one nearby. Then use the two beamrs for other things ! I'm
wondering about the reverse feed, tho
>>>
Well, we have some options. This is one, and I'm sure there would be a 'hard
core' that will listen and looking to you. Better by beamer than thru all
the monitors I don't have there (guess only 2 or 3).
Other option:
If the netmeeting will function and you can use a video-camera I can store
the stream and send it as 'playback'.
At the moment I've difficulties to get my camera recognized. The
installation-process show the connection device, the netmeeting-windows,
however, not. And I can't get any connection. Well, I'll advance.

Peut-être, nous devions vraiment nous occuper de la proposition de Liz :Gérard Métrailler a écrit : Sir,
After looking at all the different options regarding a presence of a Corel
person at the Paradox convention in Frankfurt at the end of October, I am
sorry to let you know that we will not be able to attend this event.
As mentioned during our phone call, on an ongoing basis, Corel examines its
business lines to ensure they are profitable. Based on this criterion and
after extensive evaluation, it has become clear that Paradox does not
generate sufficient revenues to warrant further investments in development
at this time. We recognize that we have customers who require a
full-featured database application. To address these customers, we have
included Paradox 10 in the Professional edition of WordPerfect Office 12,
available as a licence. In addition, we will continue to provide technical
support to our Paradox customers as well as professional services to those
who require custom configurations.
Best regards,
Gérard Métrailler

Perhaps instead of talking to Corel (who are hopeless, IMO), you guys
should spend the time coming up with a sound business plan for Paradox.
That is, I've recently had an experience which leads me to believe (as Phil
H. once said long ago), that if the right set of people could be brought
together (manager/business types, not programmers, as programmers can
always be found), and the right plan (serious, detailed plan) could be
made, that it would be rather simple to find sufficient money to buy
Paradox and access to the BDE source and then, with this new company,
revive and modernize Paradox (removing BDE reliance or adding
alternatives).
Or, to put it in short terms, finding the money would be easy if you could
find the right people to make the right plan.
FWIW,
Liz
