IEA Management has prohibited Dale from answering this question, so your
guess (above) is as good as mine. ;-)

Hint: Dale once said it was due out October 1997. Since that time, NO
estimates have been given, nor will they be until it ships. Dale appears
to have been working concurrently on MANY projects, from Radius 2.5 to
add-ons and .DLL's for integration of other products, as well as what Dale
has said is pretty much a GROUND-UP re-write of Emerald. It probably
would have been done by now if Emerald was his only project, but with all
that on his plate, I'd get used to Emerald 2.2 for a while... My own
UNINFORMED *guess* is that it will still be some months yet. Emerald
seems to be taking a back seat to RadiusNT 2.5 for the time being.
Whenever Dale recently commented on what he's been working on, or the beta
he's going to post, its been RadiusNT. Again, an uninformed guess is that
once RadiusNT is released, he'll concentrate on Emerald again..... Here's
hoping....

And KUDOS to Dale for taking the time to get it RIGHT, rather than OUT. I
just wish RIGHT could be done FAST..... ;-)
