I don't mean to cross-post this, but I know people using Indy are here, and
we need much help and quickly.

Indy is gearing up for a new major release.  One other person and I have
been working around the clock for several weeks now trying to make that
happen.  Due to deadlines we're working under, we need a release ASAP.

A LOT of changes have been made to the inner code, and to some of the
interfaces.  For instance, there is UTF-8 support at the IOHandler and
IdBuffer levels now, more C++Builder and FreePascal support has been
implemented, IOHandler and IdStack optimizations have been made, the IdSys
and IdObjs units have been removed, etc.

Unfortunately, the current Indy 10 snapshot is not ready for production use
just yet, in our opinion.  Since we seem to be the only two people working
on Indy 10 at this point, we're not going to make the deadlines we have at
the rate we're going.  So we need more people to get involved on this, and
quickly.  We need Indy 10 to be thoroughly re-tested.  We need to make sure
things even still run at all.  Make sure any bugs that have crept in are
fixed.  And so on.

So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, anyone and everyone that can, please download the
current snapshot from http://indy.fulgan.com and start hammering away on it
over the next few days, and report any problems that arise.
