Frankly, I can't imagine that BRIEF needs more than 2 programmers, as
long as they are talented.

Dead product???  Certainly no more dead than before Borland bought it.
Regardless, I'm still happily using it, don't see much need/room for
improvement, and frankly don't much care whether or not Borland
updates it.  At least Borland has pumped up sales a bit.

Best regards,
John
