TinyApps.Org Newsletter Issue 17 - May 19, 2002


+++NEWS+++

0. The newsletter frequency is now "occassional". All
are welcome to submit articles, news, etc for
inclusion.

1. The "no installer" & "no dll updates" rules have
been discarded to allow some exceptional apps to
return. However, there is still a strong preference
for non-installing apps.

2. Have you ever been to one of those tourist
attractions where they give you a big bag of dirt to
sift through, looking for gems? Well, this issue's
contribution from an anonymous subscriber is kind of
like that. There are plenty of goodies, but it is
going to require some effort to uncover them, as no
links are provided. If you decide to dig, please
share your uncovered treasures with us:
