I'm in complete agreement here that there is no point in blaming
previous management.  But I don't think that happens much if at all.
None of us really talks or thinks about Borland much anymore.  We
certainly recognize that the past is past and that it is time to move
forward.  I don't think it is fair to accuse us of blaming problems on
previous manageemnt.


I do understand why you think that it does happen.  Previous management
is raised all the time here, and we have to point out that we aren't
part of that any more.  Witness how many times someone types the
ever-witty 'BorInriCodeGedero" or
"Borland/Inprise/Borland/CodeGear/Embarcadero". We aren't the one's
bringing up the previous administration much if at all.
