Hi Roy,

> That's good news (I hope)

Unfortunately, I don't think it bodes well for life as we know it. I hope
I'm totally wrong (which wouldn't be the first time), but I think the "Grim
Reaper" is sharpening his scyth.

BDS2007 (CDS2007?) will be a release that could make or break CodeGear.
There are *a lot* of D7 (& under) developers still waiting for a
rock-solid release to upgrade to at a *reasonable* price.

Hi Jason,

I have always been very staunch Borland supporter, owning every version of
Delphi, 1 through BDS2006, but had to think long and hard whether to renew
my maintenance license a few weeks ago (and that was before this
announcement). IMO CodeGear simply cannot compete with M$ in the .NET arena,
they will *always* be in catch up mode (and frankly VS2005 is better for
developing .NET and ASP.NET applications than BDS2006 even discounting .NET
2.0 support). If they do not target the correct market with the correct
products, I do not see a future for them.

Incidentally, I did renew my maintenance license, but it may be the last
time.
