[DUG] Ideas around the DUG

[Richard Vowles]

HI Paul,
 
(1) I don't know who exactly. This is done in two parts - "core" of
Borland and everyone else. The "core" are the R&D teams & product
marketing - so everyone related to Delphi, InterBase, JBuilder, etc are
part of it. Also Developer Relations (John Kaster, David I, etc) Then
there are the "everyone else". In Aust/NZ there are five of us: me, Tim
Jarvis, Malcolm Groves, Rachel (not going there), James Chessel, David
Adams. Rest of world - no idea.
 
(2) That is way speculation. I don't think there would ever be no buyer,
it would take Yellowstone Park to stop this. And there are a lot of
interested parties. I just don't know.

Dear Richard,
 
Just a couple of questions about DevCo if you know the answers and are
allowed to tell us please,

	1.) Who (how many) exactly are the DevCo team, I read in one of
their Blogs the other day something like  . . 

		"When I walked into THE room and anounced  ..  a cheer
went up from EVERYbody "

	2.) If Prince Charming  doesn't come a long will Borland 

		(who have just poured $USD100m into a purchase believed
to be helping make Developers more redundant) 

	carry on investing in DevCo themselves any way? 
	 
	Has that committment been able to be made?

Paul

	I thought that purchase process was done as everyone talked
about DevCo.

	Where have you been? ;-)
	 
	It's the interim "Delphi community" phrase for Borland's IDE
business (including Delphi, JBuilder, etc) which is in the process of
being spun off as a separate entity.
