Apple is not "pulling the plug" on MacinTalk--it has not been supported
for years.  One must also realize that in order to avoid the same mistake
that we have in this case, Apple is not just going to provide some interim
sound solution which will again break after another system software release.
It is important for Apple, for developers, and most of all the users that
we provide a SOLUTION to the problem, not just another problem.  Unfortunately,
that solution takes a little longer than we would all like.
