	I just called RightBrain and was told they hope to be shipping by  
Friday...

	The most unfortunate thing is that the capabilities of PasteUp have  
been kept in the dark for the most part.  I guess that protects RightBrain from  
having other companies steal their ideas before they get a chance to ship.   
Unfortunately, in my case, it meant that I had to make a decision today about  
whether I would purchase FrameMaker or PasteUp.  Do to the fact I have used  
Frame before, and I have not used PasteUp, I went with Frame.  :-(

	Hopefully, come mid-september, october time frame  PasteUp will be out,  
widely reviewed, and I will upgrade/sidegrade to it.

	Sorry Glenn...  However, I will shell out immediately for the Utilities  
bundle as soon as you actually start shipping the source code with it.  PasteUp  
is obviously (and rightly) the priority though.
