Server edition for Linux?

rbuser

Hi!

What are the plans on supporting Linux (Kylix) for the RB server edition?
I have read several articles explaining that Kylix is no part of your
business as far as the "normal" editions of RB are concerned, but I can't
believe your view is the same in the server market. Is it?

I think Linux is here to stay, but the current climate for Delphi Linux
tools is not good.

Could be a possibility for the future, we'll see what the demand is
like. Thus far we have not seen a enough demand for Linux to justify the
development cost. Borland and the third party component companies that
support Linux are losing lots of money on the current Linux market, they
are hoping it will grow. With Delphi 7, Kylix is included free - that
should tell you something.


An RB Server for Linux would still be a huge development project.
