No, I do like 2.5 very much, I'm working on docs, site, my programs etc.
2.5 is great. And *any* step on correction of RDS 2.5 must be
discussed from all sides.
I just thought this number - 300 pages - is useful thing to know.
But people like their old stable products. 2.3 PD ruphoria works for my
Russian users and for me. And 2.5 requires big efforts to make it Russian.

Win32lib has its authors. Maybe, authors want Win32Lib to be compatible
with 2.4 or 2.3. Who knows?
We can do all we want now, with 2.5. Again, Great product.
