I recently talked to Greg Marriot, author of Facade. He's doing system software
stuff at Apple and has told me he would be joining forces with ColorFinder's
author (sorry, name just escapes me) as soon as Sys7 is out. Some new features
would include things like colour icons and allowing common names such as, I
believe, Hyper Disk1 and Hyper Disk2 to have the same icon etc. Can't wait!
