It seems better to me:

1. To specialize on certain problems
2. Participate on existing sites (which do not have limits)

But, above all, if there are volunteers, the BORLAND should
organize that, OWL is a BORLAND product (am I wrong?).
I loosed so many time fighting with VDBT controls, then I realized that they
are
unusable. The BORLAND wasn't there (here in the newsgroup) to tell us that
they are not working properly).
Now I see an OWL newsgroup that is going to be CAOS if somebody doesn't
changes something (e.g. organizing questions answers in a searchable
database).


I am thinking about moving to linux and wasting my time at least to do public
domain
software, think about.

Best wishes.
