Commonwealth Ave., in meeting room B. Guiffy Returns to SCOUG April 19th! What a Difference a Year Makes You remember Guiffy (pronounced "goofy"). We saw what a versatile development tool it is at our meeting in February 2002. Now we look forward to having developer Bill Ritcher of Guiffy Software (www.guiffy.com) back at SCOUG to show how he's updated the software. Guiffy is a powerful multi-platform utility for visually comparing and merging source files, folders, and even file trees. Version 5.0 was released on March 15th, and new pricing was just announced April 1st. If you're a developer, you'll certainly want to be at this meeting to see just how indispensible this latest version of Guiffy can be for you. If you're not, you'll appreciate all that's involved in managing software development. Also at our April meeting, Lynn Maxson and Bob Blair plan to continue in their quest to assure the success of OS/2 open source by defining the optimum environment for efficient development. You should plan to stick around after Guiffy for the Programming SIG and give them a hand. As always, if you're having difficulties with something OS/2 related, be ready to explain your problem and get some answers and suggestions for solving it during the Q and A session. Donuts and coffee await you, too. Help Desk chats are on Wednesday evenings at 7 PM PDT. If you've got a problem with hardware or software, join the chat and ask for help. Info is at http://www.scoug.com/chat/index.html. OS/2 Help Desk and Networking SIG, May 4th, 2003, 2 PM PDT, Chapman University in Orange: SCOUG's in-person OS/2 Help Desk is held once a month at Chapman University, in room 203 of the Hashinger Hall Science building. SCOUG volunteers are there to help you work through your hardware and software problems. The Networking SIG normally meets at the same time and place as the live OS/2 Help Desk, but it's still on hiatus. We hope to have it back in May or June. Check the SCOUG website (http://www.scoug.com), especially the "Next Meeting" link in the upper left-hand corner for further updates.
