Hello,

For those who didn't notice, there is a new voting available.
Come on, lets participate. I'm very curious about this one.

I've voted, and looked at the results and I'm surprised that even 9 people say they're developing in D2009 - evaluating, starting to make the move to I could understand but developing surprises me.

I'm surprised with that too, and also with the voting for D7.
I was expecting less D7 votes and more D2007, and note D7 is mentioned
alone. I'm really curious about the results.

I have just added my vote under D2009.
I have decided to place my current suite of (D2006) apps into maintenance mode with future upgrades in D2009.
So far I have managed to convert one small app with only the internationalisation still to be done (waiting for imminent availability of component).

All my remaining apps are datbase ones and will need EDB.  
No, that's not your keyboard rattling, it's my knees!

Delphi 2009 is especially interesting from one standpoint - you can take a
D2009 application and move it back and forth to VCL.NET with very little
changes now that it has a TStringBuilder object, Unicode support, generics,
etc.  It will be interesting to see what they do with .NET going forward.

Dear Roy,

I voted Delphi 2009 because the product is awesome and i already started
to upgrade my applications to Delphi 2009 ...

Many thanks to 3rd party developers which they upgrading their code to
Delphi 2009. (Including Elevate of course

It seems that everyone will move on Delphi 2009 ...

I guess Codegear will not let us down this time and it seems they'll
support the product very well. (releasing hotfixes and updates etc ...)

On the basis you still see posts in the CodeGear ngs referring to D1 and D4 (haven't noticed any for D2 or D3) I very much doubt that.

Exactly. Not so many questions to ask in ngs from me, I have a bunch of
apps to maintain in D5. Here, we won't be upgrading any time soon. The
reason is simple "why fix something that ain't broken".

Lucian

Course.... with it being Delphi Prism in VS and Codegear folling more of the
latest in  .NET stuff, it will be very interesting to see how much they'll
keep the VCL.NET compatible..   Course it wont be the same IDE, so that will
make things even more interesting.

Of course I found out all of this information *after* I made that post.

I'm checking out the upcoming Delphi/.NET stuff in more detail this week.
