Translation Req (French): 4D

Un mystérieux informateur nous livre une petite exclusivité_:

4D abandonne provisoirement le développement de la
fameuse version 7 (aka Goldfinger), qui était
totalement compatible MacOs X, mais qui obligeait les
développeurs 4D à réapprendre la totalité du langage
4D.

Abandon définitif de 4D Business Kit.

Bref, ils mettent le paquet sur l'affinage de la 6.8
(la 6.9 du coup risque de s'appeler V.7!), et la 6.5 a
encore de beaux jours devant elle... avec MacOs 9!

Plus d'autres joyeusetés non encore
confirmées... Bref c'est la crise...

Espérons que cela n'arrive pas à Quark_;-)

The auto translation didn't work out too well.

An Anonymous Source Recently Told MacBidouille...
4D has temporarily shelved development of its OS X compliant Version 7 - codenamed "Goldfinger." Developers were overburdened with having to learn entirely new methods of coding 4D.

Final Decision to Abandon Previous Business Models
In short, Goldfinger's developers ended up shifting future emphasis into refinement of version 6.8. Version 6.9 will likely be formally released as V.7, and 6.5A will continue its existence exclusively as a Mac OS 9 program!

There were other unforseen difficulties, but the coding problems appeared to play a central part in the decision.

Let's hope nothing similar develops at Quark
