Hey,

My 2 cents worth about Win32Lib:

I am interested only in Windows development and I can't see that changing in the
next year or two at least.  Just wondering how many other people out there have
the same view.

I started using Euphoria because it is an elegant language and also because a
"bound" program is very easy to distribute.  I started using VB and when it
comes time to send your program to someone you need to send 2-3 MB for a simple
60KB program.  Well ... I'm not going to lie, I also started using Euphoria
becuase it didn't cost me a cent!!!!.  Not to say I won't register in the future
if I beleive I can produce commercial quality windows programs.

Also, I read the Euphoria Micro economy concept a few days ago and it seems
to me very few people vote.  Surely an email once a month isn't that difficult
to encourage developers to continue releasing software.  There are some really
great libraries and utilities with nothing / or almost nothing registered.

Anyway .. have a nice day :)
