I'm Edwin Yip. I mainly develop in Delphi. My newest and key project is (https://docxmanager.com). Basically it helps authors who uses Microsoft Word organize and plan their writings, and optionally generate modern-looking websites out of their documents.
I don't use it, But I'm curious as to what are the major changes of v2 which disappoint you? I like the v1 interface as shown in the above mentioned article.
And I like C (although I don't code in it), because Delphi/Lazarus can interface with C very easily, you know, there is a lot of C libraries around the world :)
Everything changes, the world changes. Nowadays you write Korean but your ancestors had been using Chinese as your country's official languages for many hundred years; Now we all learn English to communicate internationally but a few hundred years ago they use France.
No one knows how the world will change but there is one thing we can be sure of - no one can force the world to change at his own will - the only thing s/he can do is to adopt it - just as what we human beings have been doing for millions of years.
Sorry, but what you said is quite different from my conclusion from comparing a country which starts wars all around the world, with a country which build infrastructures all around the world.
Delphi and Lazarus (open source)?
