Hi Heather, thanks for the update. Richmond, that was way over the top dude. I respect your right to say your peace, and not much of it rings wholly true to me.
I pretty much just trust the team, last I talked to Kevin, he seemed sure of the direction that they are taking......and for now....esp with 9.05 the team has delivered a powerful and stable language and platform. Thank you.
