Welcome to the e-zine edition of the newest, most comprehensive BASIS International Advantage issue to date!
This issue is filled to the brim with exciting articles about new product features added to the recently released BBj® 7.

With BASIS TechCon2007 just around the corner, this issue serves as a peek into the technical sessions and delivers more details about the scope of this "don't want to miss" conference.
As Editor in Chief of the BASIS Advantage, I am pleased to present these extensive articles from our engineering team.
