Comments
from the
Editor
==========================================================
There are always interesting discussions happening in the CodeGuru forums. A
few weeks ago, I started including links to a couple of the ‘hottest’ threads in
the forums. What constitutes a hot thread is one that has sparked a lot
of responses in the forums.
The hottest thread links are lower in this newsletter within the Discussions
section. These threads are also listed on the front of CodeGuru near the
bottom.
If there are other things you’d like to see in this newsletter, or things
you’d like to see gone, please feel free to send suggestions my way. We
have a lot of readers, so I can’t promise every change will be made, but I am
willing to consider nearly any.
Until next week!
Brad!
