That's rather sad news Ianabout Book Currier. I wonder why?
I've always been puzzled as to the relationship of BC to Bookport as they
are, in essentials, very similar. Wonder if development will shift over to
BP and American centred needs?

Contrary to your impression, Ray, all indications from Springer Design
via the book courier list are that they've moved into a different area
of product development and that if the BC is not completely on hold, it
is at least very firmly on the back burner.

I'm interested James to hear there is a BC users list, although I don't
have a Currier at the moment.
Must say that from all that's been said the Book Currier would be a much
better buy for the extra forty quid or so. I did hear rumours that BC
might be upgraded very soon. Any truth in this James, or any one , as
far as you know?

Hi Ray
What problems are you having with the BC? You can contact me off-list,
on list or use the Book Courier user group (send mail to
bookcourier-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with "subscribe" in the subject line)
and I'll see if I can help.
James
