Nicolas, Do you have any time frame for your upgrading to VS 2008?
It seems like a waste to buy VS 2005 only to then have to bu VS 2008, so I would like to hear that you will stay with VS 2005 for a while. It seems that you should be using the latest version, which is what you started the product with. Maybe you have analyzed the situation much better than I can. New developers are likely to have VS 2008, but if you expect very few of them, that does not matter. Similarly, if you can find a work around for the ATL situation, such as documenting a third party solution, you will open opportunities for more developers. But that does not matter if you are confident that you will get most of your help from the developers in the installed VS 2005 base, then get the Linux version up as soon as you can. If the Google strategy is to open up PCs for innovation, I think you need to work towards free development tools instead of focusing on the existing development community, but I understand that this is an ongoing project and I am very favorably impressed overall. I think Chrome will be useful in getting away from Microsoft, so it is an unpleasant irony that I have to buy anything more from MS to do it. Thanks in advance if you can give me a time frame in which VS 2005 will be your platform.
