Hi John I visited the site and got the same impression. This is, sadly, the case for most open-source sites - lots of info on marginal latest revisions and nerded comments, but only an obtuse - or completely lacking - overview for the first-time visitor. Often not even system/software requirements are listed. These people could really gain by learning some marketing: What is this, what is the purpose, who is it aimed for, what skill is required, what software is required, etc. It's a mess and a waste. /gustav >>> jwcolby at colbyconsulting.com 11-12-2007 15:28 >>> Richard, Thanks for the link.

So I go to that link. There is an entire page starting with CSLA is a .... At the VERY BOTTOM is the paragraph that DEFINES the acronym CSLA. Sigh. But in the end I ordered the book, as well as an older book by the same author apparently no longer in print. Let's hope he can help me! ;-) John W.
