Duff – Aha. Thanks for the correction.
Dave – Jan worked for some months in the Core group, making contributions to R12 a variety of areas. He left Autodesk a few months ago to work at a start-up firm in Mill Valley named Stylos. You might have seen an article or two about them in PC Week.…
Peter – Well, thank you. The Training group has been working on Release 12 for months, and they've already covered just about everything. My contributions this time around will focus on the areas of AutoCAD's user programming interfaces. If you haven't seen the new API for AME Release 2, take…
Dennis – Working on Release 12 was one of the great experiences of my life. There were two rewards: helping to shape the product in some small ways that I think our customers will find useful (if the purpose of a business is to create and keep a customer, then…

Mark – AutoCAD Release 11 For Windows will be shipping by the time that Release 12 386 comes out, and I thought the question was in regard to the concurrent distribution of the two products. There will be a Release 12 For Windows, of course…
#Release 12.0 upgrade
Message #33534
David – We would like to ship AutoCAD Release 12 sometime in our second fiscal quarter of this year, which ends July 31. This is, of course, subject to the whims of software development fate. To the best of my knowledge, there is no new product nor upgrade pricing available…
R11 Xref (entmod)??
