Re: To show what is it is all about

Rob,

Only one person, very part time (Robert van der Hulst), is maintaining 
VO. There is effectively no other input apart from a few unpaid 3rd 
party GUI class providers. Brian plans to release a SP2 for 2.8 at 'some 
time' in the future but it would b accurate to say that the evolution of 
VO is finished and even the maintenance mode is very, very slow.

It is a shame but it is probably now the reality. There is so much more 
development going on with Dot Net (the 3.5 framework is out there now, 
that's 4 major version releases to VO's one) and is being worked on by 
teams of 1000's.

You are best to purchase those tools now, especially the source code 
versions, in order to insure your VO future. Take a good look at C# in 
particular. It integrates very well with VO and has such a wealth of 
sup****t and code samples behind it.
