Lars,

thanks for your work in getting the release together!!!

All,

I will be complimenting the work by both Nick and Lars by putting the
unixODBC - ODBCConfig program into kcontrol. I am already working on
this...

I, and I presume Nick, will be eager to assists anyone who intends to
develop ODBC solutions on KDE... questions on how to get started? Just
post a message here and we will help you... problems using ODBC in KDE?
Again, post a message here and we will probably resolve the problem very
quickly.

Later...

Peter
