I just find it interesting that two of the most professionally run
development "shops"in the 4D community, those run by Jody Bevan and Jeff
Kain (BOTH of which are in the medical software arena with 24/7 systems) are
moving ahead with their v11 implementations, despite all the noise from
various sectors of the 4D community, and recommendations to the contrary.
I suspect that when I try to upgrade our production system to v11 that I
will face a multitude of problems. I also suspect that many (most? All?) of
the problems will be traced to the fact that this is a system under
development for a dozen years, where 20 or more "coders" have put their
imprint (for better or worse) on the system. I suspect that v11 will be less
forgiving or various stupidities in the upgrade than was the case in
previous upgrades.

P.S. And I don't think that either Jeff nor Jody pushed forward with v11
because THEY were enamored with the v11 technologies...my guess is that they
both had solid business reasons to do so, and that the decision was taken
after lots of testing and evaluations, along with input from many members of
their respective staffs.
