   Given this, I have two questions.  First, what will the MACL interface stuff
   look like under 2.0/CLOS, and how hard will it be to port existing code?  (I
   guess that was 1.5 questions)

It looks about what you'd expect it to look like.

(ask my-window (view-draw-contents))
    ==>>
         (view-draw-contents my-window)

I don't have much experience porting between the two, so I won't speak
to that.

   Second, does Apple have anything to do with
   ILA's CLIM effort so maybe we can forget about Mac style programs altogether
   and write some interface stuff we won't have to throw away tomorrow?

We aren't directly involved, but we are certainly aware of what
they're doing.  They are alpha-testers of 2.0, and we have a good
working relationship.  I believe there's a clim mailing list
(clim@bbn.com), where you could get more information.

My opinions are my own.  (I don't usually feel the need to say that,
but I will now.  I'm not speaking in any "official" capacity.)
