I think a good number (> 60% ??) of us aren't in Auckland.  I certainly don't plan to fly from CHCH to AK with my PC ! 
 
Secondly it is December, the busiest time of the year for functions / BBQs etc so I would guess a lot of people have Saturday booked already, it is only 3 days notice after all.

Subject: [DUG] Delphi 8 Bug-Find-A-Thon Response

I must admit to being astounded at the distinct lack of response from people from here. I have 7 people, which is good - but these have been rounded up by Distributech (we also have one response from [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Jason Saggers) - and I'm thankful for that. 
 
If Delphi is your tool of choice you have a real possibility here to affect its delivery quality. You don't need to come for the entire six hours, come for just one or two - I see people constantly complain about this or that bug - but with a chance to be proactive do you do anything? Sure you aren't getting paid to do this and you say you won't be doing .NET for years, but how many of you still write and maintain Delphi 1 applications? Quite clearly not "none", but certainly not many. You're going to be moving to .NET because Microsoft (bless their cotton socks) have said so (and it really is a far, far better environment). Even if you don't actually want to help by doing anything, even if you don't know anything about .NET, come along anyway - you'd probably learn something useful! And Delphi 8 ROCKS.
