Hi All,
	I just wanted to send a quick note to the list. This is not a formal
announcement. That will come later. I just wanted to address some of the
sentiments that have been expressed on this list lately. Unfortunately,
I can not give details... yet.

1) Yes, HP still very much cares about the Linux community and the
software we provide.

2) The vast majority of the past USB printing devices and all the future
devices, will continued to be supported through our driver.

3) Formal Linux support is still important but not feasible yet. Please
remember this when posting. HP is a huge multi national corporation and
just like in the real world, Linux is still a small percentage of the
business.

4) Sorry for the long delay and lack of communication but it will all
make sense soon.

Cory
