Ron said there was going to be an announcement about the future of CW
in the middle of August. The way I see it the middle is pretty much
over and I haven't seen anything that looks like an announcement. Did
I miss it?

No it got stuck in the chain of being approved.  I did drop several
hints that CW 10 would not be out until Next year.  I think I have other
good news.

Oh and yeah we are having a 9.3 Update :)

Yes it is excellent News that we are having a CW 10 release.  And that
it will be around the time that Apple releases its next Operating
system.  I think that is excellent news

I'll post something later this afternoon

Will CW 10 work with the new GNU Pascal plug-in?

To answer that question, I have to know what changes MW plans to the
Plugin SDK for CW 10. Maybe the current version will work, maybe I will
have to make changes to the plug-ins.

GNU Pascal currently runs 64-bit on 64-bit platforms, so I expect that
we wil be able to release a 64-bit version for Mac OS X Tiger also.

I think Metrowerks has been pretty cooperative with you (Adriaan) and
certainly consider your enhancements valuable to the developers
community and we appreicate it.

Get a grip, Ron. This is good news. Excellent news would be that it's
going to offer more than Tiger compatibility and maybe some
enhancement that's so poorly implemented most people think it's not
even practical to use (think language parser).

In all fairness I understand that you can't discuss exactly what CW 10
might hold in store for us. OTOH, Metrowerks' history with CW over the
past few years has been less than impressive, so any real information
would be a plus.

By excellent I hope it doesn't mean that Metrowerks will release before
Tiger for the sake of releasing and then spend the next 12 months
patching it three times.

In my mind, Tiger compatibility means you are going to work with Apple
to ensure it works right out of the box but. Please make sure that
Godfrey Digiorgi is aware of your release plans early on and coordinate
for the benefit of all CodeWarrior developers.

Godfrey does not work for Apple any more.  Metrowerks could still make
him aware of their release plans, but it probably wouldn't affect much.

You make it sound as if no one has replaced Godfrey in this position.
Is that the case?

I wouldn't really know.  I certainly wasn't trying to give you that
impression. :)
