From the "News from BorCon - what, am I too lazy to set up a blog?" message
in the Delphi.nontechnical newsgroup, it looks like Kylix will have no
update until at least 2004. No news yet as to the status of any patches but
I would not hold my breath on it.

Correction:
According to the mentioned post there will be no Kylix update
until 2005 (No updates in 2003 or 2004) !!!
Kinda bad news, but at least we have some facts so we can
start using other Linux development tools without thinking
about "abandoning" Kylix.

they do occur it isn't likedly to be until after 2004. Brion
apparently heard it slightly differently.
Kylix is dead, but Borland is loathe to hold the funeral because that would
reduce minuscule earnings from Kylix into the void before the
universe started. My opinion, but one that I bet is very widely shared.

hope of recovery? I bought K3PVS several months ago and have been using it
successfully on Suse 8.2 and Libranet 2.8 to do a lot of non-gui system and
data work. I like OP on Linux and find that I can get many things done as
quickly as I can with perl since I've built a little library.
So it's found a niche with me. If it dies, so what (for me).
In the meantime, I'm watching Lazarus. Just need to carve out a day to
really rip into it.

I tried to sign up for a mailing list on the site but got no confirmation.
Thanks for any info....

the cvs is updated daily and the mailing list is more than 20 message/day.
By the way you can deploy a exe file made with lazarus only with the GTK
libs, no tricks, no specific lib, it is great :-)

Well, it's still a long way to go, but it's opensource. Why not help them?

I agree with you. I know that here are very intelligent people that can
help with Lazarus.
It could be now imperfect, but while exist 1 programmer and 1 user
interested, it will be alive.
