Fwd: DIA Port of Win32

[James Michael DuPont <mdupont777 yahoo com>]

Dear Dia list,
this is the mail that I have set to hans.

I don't think that it is out of line,
if you think that there is something wrong with it,
please tell me. 

I promise to publically apologize for any wrongdoing.

Best regards,
Mike
