And it will not be .NET but based on the old/existing code base. I guess it a big job to transport MapInfo Pro to .NET, and I'm glad that they don't push it and send out a MapInfo Pro that can't live up to the existing version.

Maybe you in the know are not supposed to spill the beans, but perhaps we could get a hint on the release schedule for MapInfo Professional v8? The beta cycle should be well underway by now, I should think.
