A: No, the individual developer seems increasingly unimportant to Borland. Certainly not as important as individual developers were up until a few years ago. Borland's focus is now changing to expensive and complicated ALM tools that have limited use for a solo developer, or even for teams of a few developers. Even assuming Borland's ALM tools were useful to a small team, they are much more expensive and won't yield much more benefit to small developers than open source or inexpensive ALM tools like Subversion version control, Active Focus requirements management, FogBugz or Trac bug tracking software. -- Herbert Sitz |
