The Last Word

January 1996 Dr. Dobb's Developer Update
Two years ago, we began publishing Dr. Dobb's Developer Update and included it as part of your Dr. Dobb's Journal subscription. In examining emerging trends and technologies influencing software-development, this monthly newsletter carved out a unique niche, presenting informed opinions and relevant news.

The success of the Developer Update can be attributed to the insight and efforts of Ray Valdes and Kevin Carlson. As the team responsible for developing and producing the newsletter, they unfailingly got the news to you under the tightest of deadlines. Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end, and so it goes with Dr. Dobb's Developer Update. Due to dramatic increases in the cost of postage and paper, this is the last issue of the newsletter. All of us at Dr. Dobb's Journal have derived great satisfaction in producing a one-of-a-kind publication that served the special needs of software developers. Still, the greatest satisfaction has been the many positive letters you've sent us in response to Dr. Dobb's Developer Update. Thanks for your support.
