Shirley, I think you're mistaking Fullwrite 1.1 and Fullwrite 2.0. FWP 1.1
is a maintenance release that cleans up some bugs and fixes some crashing
problems using the outlining. It doesn't add any new functionality and it
doesn't deal with the memory or performance aspects. FWP 2.0 is a major
rewrite of lots of the internals to fix the memory and performance problems
as well as adding a bunch of stuff. From what I've heard, 1.1 has gone
golden (or soon will). 2.0 is out a ways, and they're working hard at
getting it done. The move from AAS to A-T and the relocation of the staff to
the Bay Area (first to temporary quarters, then to a permanent building)
hurt the development cycle. Now everyone's settled in and things should be
moving forward....
