[DUG] A change in upgrade policy coming from Embarcadero

[Paul A Norman]

Dear Richard,

Just to get that in plain English - that would mean that as of Jan 1 2010,
my Delphi 2005 Professional will not get me an upgrade?

I still feel cheated that at no time were those of us who bought Delphi 2005
which still has many unpatched major problems given the opening to more
reasonibly  ($) upgrade from it.

Let alone now having this put on us!
