Random Thoughts on the Passing Scene #69
08 May
- Best question asked at the All Hand meeting yesterday: "When’s the party?"
- Sounds like things were pretty crazy at JavaOne yesterday.
- Interesting graph: http://www.news.com/8301-13580_3-9936329-39.html
- One thing that is clear to me — Embarcadero is most decidedly not an "ALM Company". That phrase carries a some baggage for many of you, but it seems pretty clear to me that the new company will be focused on developers as we have been all along.
- Other thoughts from the Blogsphere on the deal:
-
- Allen has a nice take on a slightly crazy day yesterday
- Roland BeenHakker — EmbarraWhat?, Embarcedar, Embarcadero…
Dear Nick,
I’ve sent you mail, please check it out and respond. Basically, I’m finding it hard to purchase Delphi 2007 - it is so ridiculous!
These are the kind of issues the new company needs to avoid.

Best wishes,
