[] Having spent much of the last month developing my first MS Windows Application (a simple concordance program for the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures in the original languages), I am thoroughly impressed with the theory behind Windows, reasonably impressed with the implementation, and largely frustrated by the quality of the documentation and lack of development / debugging tools. Is there a forum somewhere on the net where Windows is discussed? Are other Windows developers out in net.land? If there is not already a Windows forum, is there sufficient interest to establish some type of mailing list, etc. for passing information and questions. I already know about Dial - the MS bulletin board service. We have been participating in it for a few weeks now, and must soon decide whether to shell out the $300 to subscribe for a year. Dial articles tend to be bug reports and remedial documentation - very helpful, but also very formal. I am, however, also interested in informal discussion of programming experiences, things to watch out for, and helpful discoveries.
