In my opinion it would wiser for RDS to not waste valuable time and

  effort on application programming ie database and etc. The full

  development effort should be only directed at the core langauge.

  If the correct core langauge features are added the users will

  develop the applications. I understand that RDS can not add every

  feature that is requested but with careful consideration features

  can be added that will give the end user the ability to extend the

  language and write the database and etc. applications for you. Every

  time RDS adds another platform the design for the core lanaguage

  design changes, because this and that feature can not be implemented

  in the new language. I think that RDS should not continue to add new

  platforms until the basic core language is fully designed. I think

  that if RDS improved the core langauge that in a long run they would

  make them more money if thats their goal.


  I think RDS is concentrating too much on the public domain use and

  neglecting the paying customer. I am willing to pay a reasonal price

  for a Euphoria Pro edition that has features that allows me to add

  my own features. Even though I do not program for a living, I think their

  are many programmers on the list that use Euphoria to make a living that

  would be willing to pay for your work.

  The question to ask is if another company developed a langauge that

  supported sequences then what other features would be unique about

  Euphoria.

  Waiting for and willing to pay a reasonable price for a core language

  upgrade.

  Thanks for your good work so far Rob
