   June 1994: Daub received a favourable review from Jerry Olsen in Prodigy
      Selections, the "hit products of the week" area on ZiffNet, a US-based
      information service.

   July 1994: Daub was included on a multimedia CD put out by a French company,
      Micro Application. The CD features some of the best shareware titles
      from around the world in various catagories - 89 programs in all.

 
   DAUB 2.0 will be out before the end of the year - but don't wait for it,
   register version 1.5 now and get version 2.0 for nothing when available.

   *** The DAUB 2.0 demo included here is a very incomplete version of the ***
   *** program you will get with the free upgrade.                          ***
   
   Since it is a big step up, the registration fee for version 2.0 will
   probably be higher than the current fee.
