Dear community,

We are very glad to hear from you and receive your early feedba= ck about the ISIS-NBP project.

We seize this opportunity to further explain the nature of the = ISIS-NBP project, and try to mend the beginnings of a misconception.=

We have started to publish these series of nuggets about ISIS-N= BP to give you early insight about the platform still *under development*. Our motivation is = mainly transparency.

This community is surely composed by ISIS users, consultants and developers. Each type of us= er has a different needs and expectations, and we are well aware = of that. Therefore, we must state, as clearly as possible, that:

<= FONT size=3D2>ISIS-NBP is still in its infancy; Bireme?s prevision is to la= unch a beta version by the end of this year, and a full grown package the f= irst semester of next year.

Not an application in itself, the same as IsisDll, or Is= isScript or wwwisis are not applications either.

Having said that, we expect that you will think your expec= tations about ISIS-NBP under a new light.

If ISIS-NBP were a building, it would be only natural that peop= le would be anxious to see an innovative architectural external design= , or how it is furnished and decorated. As it is also natural when they are= turned down to see blueprints, the plumbing and wiring. But these things m= atter. We will keep on spreading nuggets about ISIS-NBP, and we expect = ;you will keep giving us such honest feedback.

best regards,

ISIS-NBP Team
