The URL doesn't work either! Says page can't be found. Any other suggestions?

Hi Debbie,

scroll down to Mike Lang's "missed deadlines" thread - he posted the whole article...sorry I missed that thread earlier when I started this thread.

For what it's worth, here's the link:

Blackout?

The link listed in c.s.y2k had a small typo in it...

So they miss a mid-99 deadline by two weeks? (june compliance, now mid-july)

Doesn't seem to me to be worth gnashing jaws and pulling your hair out. after all, the 1-1-00 deadline is the one that counts in this case.

Sure, Declan...but half a year isn't a big margin for error, and if they already know they can't make that deadline...take it from a geek, they don't know when they're going to be done.
