About the author
For those of you who were not aware of it, Chief Technology Officer Blake Stone and the last remaining Delphi architect, Chuck Jazdzewski has left Borland.
Blake Stone is the person who gave life to Borland JBuilder, all the way from version 1 up to JBuilder X.
Danny Thorpe is now Delphi compiler architect. He had been the Delphi compiler architect for the past 2-3 years. Danny had been with Borland for nearly 13-15 years. He joined Borland sometime in 1988 or 1989.
