Does anyone have any info/rumours/speculation on the status of
Brief?  I know that it was bought by Borland.  I've seen it
advertised in Programmer's Workshop for $99.  This seems like a
bargain price.  I'm a bit curious about the reason for the
bargain price.
 
Does Borland intend to continue it as an independent product, or
incorporate it into their compiler packages?  Might Borland
transfer parts of it to their compiler packages, and discard the
rest?  If Borland intends to keep developing it, then the
current price is a great deal.
