I doubt there has been strong vocal support for D8 from anyone,

Anyway, if we want CodeGear (or, in the past Borland) to know what
we think, we don't have to do that in the public newsgroups. We
have far more direct ways of communicating with them, and believe
me, we are not always very diplomatic.

Does that mean that while you were defending D8 in these newsgroups
you were actually criticisings it in private to Borland?

Many things have been said about Delphi 8 (and about Delphi 2005, 2006,
2007, etc.). Much of it was probably true. But not all. If I corrected
such incorrect statements, people immediately accused me of apologism.
I guess I'll have to live with that. <shrug>
