Dear POSSI:

I've asked this before - possibly in a different 'guise' - and here I am asking again: What URLs Would YOU Recommend?

This has 'come up' again because I _WANT_TO_ write to the seller of the Merlin (OS/2 Warp 4) to pass along to its recent buyer "places" s/he could 'go' / contact others to be of assistance to their learning efforts. (This presumes that the buyer wasn't 'one of us' already - which IS likely to be the case!)

I want to 'compile' a 'standard listing' of on-line ref.s that could be given over to a 'newbie' that, not only would help get them started, but, ALSO, show them there exists a community of users (still!) and help 'integrate' them into it.

So the question(S) are:
 Where would YOU 'send' them to get info and or help?

Would you include POSSI? SCOUG? xxx?
 Is there an "Aussie" (or 'Ozzie') UG? How 'bout Europe?

Then, what ref. URLs are left (active)?
 Ok. Hobbes. Some (wonderful) "OS/2 Site" in Australia(, IF I remember correctly). BUT what - if ANYthing - of the IBM Corp., itSELF?

Some months ago, I tried a link (from an VERY old set of bookmarks) to a German / English site that listed versionS of all the IBm components. It did NOT come up!

Well that IS enough to get US started. (Yes, I have my OWN ideas BUT I looking for those 'out of the way places' that I do NOT know!)


Sincerely,

Thomas Clayton
