"The all present subtext was, however, that “Embarcadero should now slow down the development and FIX THE BUGS!” I cannot disagree with that – since the XE2, the Delphi has become increasingly less and less reliably. The time has come for a big spring cleanup."
FIX ALL THE BUGS! Ok... so I've seen that meme too many times, but there are so many evil little bugs that really needs fixing. 6 months of proper fixing of the stupid things in the IDE, and the ridiculous things in FireMonkey, and the horrible things in the RTL and VCL - could get us a long way.

Good news.
ReplyDeleteyou right, Embarcadero must stop and fix the bugs. They are blinded for mobile development

ReplyDeleteP.S. I honestly don't care if the fixes would be breaking existing code. Workarounds for buggy code is also broken code.
ReplyDeleteCan't agree enough with that last comment Lars Fosdal
