CHINESE MINISTRY OF ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY ENDORSES OS/2 WARP

The Ministry of Electronics Industry of the People's Republic of China and
IBM have agreed to use the OS/2 Warp software platform, in conjunction
with Lotus Notes groupware, in their effort to establish specifications
for Chinese computing platform standards.

Under this agreement, the Ministry agrees to endorse OS/2 Warp as a
preferred product and recommend it to users. Meanwhile the Special
Committee on Chinese Computing Platform will invite IBM and Lotus to act
as correspondent members. The Special Committee will recommend character
fonts, character style and input methods which are consistent with Chinese
standards, to expedite the standardization of OS/2 Warp and Lotus Notes.

This is the first time that the Ministry has officially endorsed a specific
product for computer users. It is also the first time that the Ministry
has invited a foreign company to join the Special Committee on China's
Computing Platform.
