If SAP will not want to manage, help us to understand how to fund and manage a project for the protection of POWERBULDER for the coming years. I've got to protect my clients and my investments. And then let's face it: Powerbuilder is a wonderful development language, has no equal.Alessandro Feltrinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14934996.post-2222089107866375582013-08-14T11:43:16.000-07:002013-08-14T11:43:16.000-07:00If it won't get them in trouble with their res...If it won't get them in trouble with their respective employers maybe you can reach out to the folks that use to work with PB but no longer have anything to do with it. Some heavy hitters like Dave Fish, Paul Horan, Reed Shilts, Jim O'Neil to name a few. Their names may carry some weight in certain circles.Marknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14934996.post-25282590195790987502013-08-19T00:57:36.000-07:002013-08-19T00:57:36.000-07:00I have signed up for causes but I have no hope.

The system that I developed is purely made using PB. Support on this is really needed since this still exists and been used. Hoping for this to acted upon.Adrian M. Abarcasnoreply@blogger.com
