[DUG] Everyone aware of the Delphi roadmap presentationon 27thmay?

[Richard Bullin]

Well I was glad to hear about project X, the timing is just unfortunate
though as we are already half way through converting our Kylix code to
c++ as we were under the impression it was a dead duck and we can't
really afford to wait how many days/years for it to come out?

Anyway I'd also like to mention that our windows based applications have
always used Delphi and I love the language, the only thing that I get
frustrated about is that there seems to be an increase in bugs in what I
would consider basic functionality. We upgraded from Delphi 7 to Delhi
2007 and noticed a lot of bugs mainly to do with the IDE (i.e. structure
view not updating, forms not getting sent to back, tool palette
switching to project wizards while trying to place components...), I did
submit quite a few bugs which could be replicated and even after
downloading the 2009 trial I noticed that they are still there.

Anyway I'd just like to say that our company would gladly pay money for
a new version even if it only included bug fixes, as having new features
but at the cost of frustrating little bugs that add up is not cool. All
access doesn't interest us either. There's my 2c.

Regards
Richard Bullin

All Access doesn't excite me either as I'm really only interested in
Delphi
