One of the great things about this list is that it is an open forum. We can basically talk about what we want. You want to criticize 4D, go ahead. You want to praise 4D, go ahead. You want to speculate on the future of 4D, you are free to do that. Terms like “landmark 4D Summit” and “features you didn’t imagine were on our engineer’s roadmap” make my ears perk up. Read the 4D website (http://events.4d.com/summit/us/washington/) and find this: > When an Evolution becomes a Revolution! > Presented by: Jean-Pierre Ribreau > with special guest: Laurent Ribardière > > Objects, and especially object notation, have opened the door for something > huge – something that changes the way you design your code, from structure > definition to the very last line.

What’s it all really mean? 4D won’t tell you, yet. So I’m going to speculate. It’s a new object oriented 4D language. Wouldn’t that be nice? Wouldn’t that be unexpected? Wouldn’t that be a big deal? It’s so big that Laurent Ribardière himself will be there with JPR to talk about it. I don’t have any inside information. Nobody from 4D has told me anything. I’m just speculating.
