It is not possible to run IZL GeoPublish, it makes use of libraries that
are not provided as part of Geopublish. Sorry. It will run under PalmConnect.

At this point it is. When version 2 becomes available, a shareware version
of the interpreter will also be released. The shareware will be able to run
tokenized executable output files produced by the version 2 IZL product.

The shareware product will not allow the development of IZL programs, however.

Version 2 is in beta test, but I am unable to provide an exact date for its
release.

Hope this helps clear things up...
