When I talked to H/P a few weeks ago they said they had the TCP/IP
code working and had originally planned on releasing it sometime around
April '86. But they also told me that there was a decision *not* to
release TCP/IP until sometime near the end of '86 when the rest of the
networking package was ready.
This seemed amazingly stupid to me, so I asked the salespeople if
they were really sure what they were telling me was correct. They insisted
it was. Sounds to me like H/P is making a big mistake and is getting left
more and more in the dust.
