Hi:
Just an observation from reading all these posts:
Are any of you suggesting making changes to IB that would render it
incompatible with app being written right now?
An example: I am checking in reg to see if IB is installed, if it is
running and if not, start it with Guardian. I saw some comments about
getting rid of Guardian.
What kind of control and by whom over what will be done with IB since
it is open source? Will there be different flavors of IB? Is Inprise
going to maintain a "real" version that will maintain a compatible
environment?
I would hope that "improvements" are restricted to necessary fixes
and the philosophy of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" would prevail.
Best regards
