“IBM Corporation [NYSE:IBM] has software that enables Linux
developers to readily create Web pages without prior HTML
knowledge.”
“Part of its move to make all of its products Linux-ready,
IBM announced during a WebSphere launching in Bangkok, Thailand
last week the availability of its WebSphere Homepage Builder
version 4. The release of this what-you-see-what-you-get
(WYSWYG) HTML editor is set for July 31, 2000.”
“WebSphere Homepage Builder is a Web site development product
called WebSphere Studio that is being sold in Japan, according to
Lee Nackman, director of architecture application and integration
middleware, IBM Software Solutions. Technically, Homepage Builder
is likely going to compete with Microsoft’s FrontPage whose version
5 set for release also on July 31, is designed to run on Windows
95, 98, NT, and 2000.”
