RYRYRYRYRYRYRYRYRYRYRYRYRYRY ZCZC IT-WIRE 20000320 IMMEDIATE RELEASE Dublin, Ireland (Routers) - Further evidence of the dot-com revolution in the world's financial markets appeared today with the unexpected annoucement of the stock market flotation of lspace.org, which describes itself as "the world's premier supplier of collaborative web-based information solutions to the fans of Terry Pratchett". Chief technical officer Robert Collier, speaking to a press conference in Dublin's Irish Financial Services Centre over a videoconferencing link, said "L-Space has a cumulative total of around fourty years of experience in the web-based information solutions market. Our proprietary page-management and distribution technology, "make", has been a market leader in the emerging field of collaborative web design since before the Internet was invented in 1994, and with our proven distribution and synchronisation server technology, updating of multiple sites is now easier than ever before." Charismatic Steve Jobs lookalike Leo Breebaart, the company's notorious visionary driving force, added that "Our stuff is just so insanely cool that the competition has no hope. What can I say? They're all a bunch of losers. Mess with the bull, you get the horn, y'know? The dot-com revolution is past it - now here's the real news, the dot-org revolution. Hear me, Netscape? We 0wn y00." L-Space is probably best known for its patent-pending website load-balancing system, "DNS-CVS", which the company has been actively working with since 1995, and which is currently being used to synchronise web content in mission-critical markets across the globe. Financial officer Colm Buckley reported that the company intends to float on the London stock exchange sometime in May, with an initial public offering of 10 million shares at an offer price around 150p. He added that the pro-active nature of the company's extranet management solutions enables clients to leverage their existing web investment to take full advantage of the new information services paradigm. Market analysts are speculating that lspace.org will be in a position to acquire British Telecom with the results of their flotation. The merger is rumoured to be on the cards for mid-July. ENDS NNNN
