Olaf’s Thoughts About Development

Times are changing. In July CodeGear was finally sold from Borland to Embarcadero. From Agust 1st 2008 I will no longer represent Atozed Software.

Technically Atozed Software was a client of mine. I am runnning my own IT consulting business since 2004 and Atozed was one of my (bigger) clients since then.

After about 4 years of working with passion mainly on IntraWeb, which I still love and see as the best Web application framework for Delphi, I came to a point where technical innovation became more and more complicated with IntraWeb. Many new ideas were not easy to implement, as there are many road blocks because of historical reasons. A total rewrite would be a logical consequence, but that idea had no financially viable chance.

A while ago I got the offer to lead a totally new project. It was really a hard decision to take that offer and to discontinue my direct relationship with Atozed Software.

From August 1st, I’ll work on something new. It will be an exciting product and I’ll start blogging about this new project as soon as I have at least white papers and some early demos.

Don’t worry though!

My new project is still on Delphi, so I’m not going to leave the Delphi community.

I will continue to offer support and training for IntraWeb. If you need Delphi or IntraWeb assistance, on- or off-site, then just contact me.

I will cooperate with the IntraWeb Resource Center (IRC), which is a website offering support for Delphi Web application development. IRC is a place where you will find additional IntraWeb learning materials and information about IntraWeb support and training opportunities.

If you have a valid IntraWeb license and have support questions, then please see Atozed’s support options first. If you have specific support needs, which go beyond Atozed’s included options, then feel free to contact me or see the IntraWeb Resource Center. Individual support and training is available at hourly and daily rates.
