- We occasionally make comments here about our general emphasis, but
- right now we need to see where our next block of money comes from. It
- is expensive to pay the kind of programmers that work on Executor and
- we periodically have to search for funds. We hope to be able to
- bootstrap ourselves with E2 sales in the worst case, but getting
- mezzanine financing or a partnership with a larger company would make
- things much easier on everyone.
-
- That said, a native Win32 port is very high priority. The two things
- that are higher than that are getting E2 out the door (almost done)
- and a bunch of code restructuring (which will allow new employees to
- come up to speed faster and also allow Executor to be ported more
- easily).
