[Dx4win] Wish list

[ON4AOI]

Hi David and Dick,

Wise words from both of you 

I am beta tester for many years now 
And I agree that the wish lists are sometimes very interesting
for a lot of people, sometimes it concerns only a few.
In other words to satisfy everybody is an illusion.
I think that there will be always discussions about what kind of
New possibilities or fields or maps etc Paul has cooked
for us in a next release.

Hi Dick,
    I haven't been involved in software for quite as long as you (only 
since the mid-70s ... I'm a youngster), but I had a saying that I used 
to use along those same lines: "Fast, cheap, good: Pick two". Of course, 
in a situation like this, with a single developer it's tough to apply 
the "fast" attribute, though I suppose if Paul wanted to, he could spend 
a fortune, hire a fleet of programmers, and then have to pass the entire 
cost on to us, something that probably isn't practical. Personally, 
while there are a few features I'd like to see, I'd prefer to see it get 
done right, rather than simply fast.
   
    What I do think is great is the increase in communication from Paul, 
so that we know that he's listening to what folks are asking for. While 
I wouldn't mind getting a sneak peak at what kinds of things are in 
store for the next version (be it version 8, 7.3, or whatever), I also 
realize that it's Paul's decision and he's going to do what's best for 
his business.
