Just a couple of quick updates for all before I head to a well-deserved rest. (Play Diablo II too much, and look what happens. ;)

First, I'd like to direct your attention away from the many behind the curtain, and towards this link. There, you will find our submission asking you to think up some questions for Rudolph Cornelissen. It's still required, just a few more, please. ;)

The naming vote that we started back in November only has a few days left before we prune it to a final 10 submissions, so please vote now, and let yourself be heard. We will then run the last and final round for the entire month of January, 2003, and present the winning vote to the beunited and openBeOS groups. It's not a formal declaration of war, or anything dramatic. It just allows more choice for those that care to be involved in this decision. Thank you.

I'm positive that Eric Forhan would love more comments in the "Porting Our Game" forum entry, so please head over there and again, let yourself be heard. It just takes a small amount of time to let people know what you think, so please, take some time now. The more that we involve ourselves with efforts and projects that the entire community can benefit from, the greater the end reward. Thanks!

One final thing. A small glimpse of the coming weeks:

• Zeta Review, YellowTab Interview, surprise guest.
• Interview with an internet rock band.
• Part 2 of "New Age BeBox" (part 1)
• More announcements and updates, of course.

So, stay glued to your computer monitor in the weeks ahead, as we report on the news of the BeOS Community, a community that cares and shares with it's members like no other. The year 2003 is going to be interesting, to say the least.
