Yes, I (Apple) is listening. Like most companies, we let the sales and
marketing folks issue the availablity dates. But, like, it will be available
REAL SOON now (your check is in the mail ... :-) ).

Seriously - if you are, or want to be, a certified A/UX software development
entity, contact Glenn Fiance, the A/UX evangelist, at (408) 996-1010. BUT,
PLEASE NOTE - this is for serious software developers who do this for a
business, not hobby, and can convince Apple that they "is" a serious
professional software developer. Otherwise, please don't bother Glenn,
he is a VERY VERY overworked guy.
