Titolo: [VO 2.7] Report di Brian (GRAFX) tratto dal NG internazionale

Vi riporto quanto scritto nel NG internazionale.
Purtroppo non l'ho tradotto (non mastico troppo bene l'inglese).
Comunque il senso è che a breve verra' rilasciata una nuova versione di VO
compilata col C7 piu' altre interessanti novita'.
Ciao,

Hello Fellow VO'ers
A few weeks ago, Peter Vletter, and others  suggested that I post a progress
report on how things are coming along on 2.7. At first, I resisted this
idea, because there is always a flurry of questions/concerns, and what was a
day, turns into a week of not working on Vo 2.7.  However, the more I
thought about it the more it makes sense. So please do not be offend if I do
not respond to your post. I do come out on the forum on a regular basis, and
read most of the messages.
In General,
Work is going very well. As many of you know, we have added Paul Piko and
John Parker to the development team. Robert Van der Hulst has also come on
board as of this month.  We're very pleased with the level of work that is
going on with VO 2.7  All of the SDK & New Repo has been completely updated
so that it compiles on the highest warnings level. This work is already
complete. Testing of this work is now beginning.
In my opinion, one of the problems with VO, has always been that the SDK
never matched the code that we were running in the "Write Protected
Repository". This is really something that is unlike other development
products, that allow you to easily edit support libs (Like in C++)  We are
working to archive this goal in 2.7. as an optional Repo.
Of course, many areas of VO need attention, but our primary goal is to
release a stable, faster version of VO 2.7 compiled in MicroSoft C7. I'm
aware of all of your concerns for the future of VO, and as I look at the big
picture, I really think we are a lot better off then we were a year ago. We
now have control over our future, and that by it self is a major step.
I've never been more aware of the fact the "only important bug" is YOURS.
Please keep this in mind, as it is my unfortunate task, to prioritize the
"know bugs" and chose what bugs effect the most people. We will of course do
our best to address all of the "know bugs". 
bugsh...@cavo.com
 is the place
to report bugs, just in case you run across one. We are now in a position to
address all known bugs.
Each day that passes we are becoming more familiar with VO subsystems, and
what makes them work in the quirky ways they do. A number of bugs in the OLE
area have already be squashed by our newest Development team member Robert
Van der Hulst, Robert will be putting his vast talents to work in other
areas of VO as well.
Work on CAVO.com
Bug Reporting system, List of Bugs, Files, tech Support ect.
The infrastructure for all of this is in place. It has been largely my fault
that this has not been completed. I hope to have some time to attend to the
things that I need to do to get this accomplished  in a relatively short
time.
About the release of VO 2.7
No official release date has been set. However, at our present rate of
progression, we expect to target summer of 2003.  In April, or May, we will
set up a pre-order page. One important note, is that we do not have a
contractual date, as we did with 2.6, so we have a little better control of
what goes out the door when.  I really have no desire to release 2.7 before
it is ready.
I want you all to know how important the success of 2.7 is to GrafX. We have
pride of ownership at stake.  We know how important this release is to you.
I want you all to know that I have not only a personal commitment, but a
good size financial commitment to VO as well.  I'm committed to make the
Visual Objects Project work.
We look forward to meeting those of you who will be attending the London
Devfest Feb 27, to March 2 to show your our considerable progress on 2.7
