> Borland cannot complain - Kylix 3 Open Edition was free for all to
> start with. I purchase Kylix 3 Pro and Kylix 3 Enterprise from them
> (though these copies or not for public download obviously) so they
> already got my money (and what a waist it was). I hate to see projects
> like on SourceForge wither and die because the development tools are
> not available for download.
