Don't hold your breath. I guarantee it is a year closer than  it was when I 
first heard a Claris programmer promise it 'Real Soon Now' and 18 months closer
than a Claris hypeflack said it would be out before Word 5.0. 

Bottom line is that like all vaporware, it is a nonexistent object. If you even
bother listening to what the developer tells you, you are giving them too much
credit. The only relevant reliable info on MWPro is that it might be out soon 
and might have some new features and improvements that Claris has mentioned. On
the other hand, it may end up with the same status as Modern Jazz, or Turbo 
Pascal 2.0, or any of a number of other forever-vapor programs.
