Agreed.  I just took exception over your claim that there was no need for
WTL.  WinForms, C# and managed C++ are not going to do away with the need
for WTL/ATL.  C++ is still a standardized language, and there will be many
many people that want to stick to non-proprietary frameworks.  WTL/ATL is
compileable on other C++ compilers.
