porting from TP/BP 6/7 is still fairly relevant... maybe not in your
part of the universe but it is definitely relevant for others... in
one development directory here there are well over 500 pas and inc
files needing porting... no clue at this time the number of LoC in
those files but it is a lot more than those with the porting task
really want to know about else it set a daunting task ahead of them...
+1 (at least)
The narrowmindedness of some of the young whippersnappers never ceases
to amaze me (and not in a good way :-( ).
Having info that is outdated (as subsequent developments have
improved/replaced it) is one thing, but what one might consider "hugely
irrelevant" is a completely different issue and "highly" depended on
subjective needs and purposes...
