    We have one now: https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/blob/master/BUILDING.md

    *Scratching head*... wondering if I can locate my BCB6 CD. :D

    I'm kidding. I have *so* many projects on the backburner that I will likely never get around to doing much with, aside from maybe a few prototypes, before moving onto something else.

    Unfortunately, I'm not kidding about the last part. :D

    I do have it available for download from Vertrauen, but getting it to run on a modern Windows systems is pretty painful.

    I do love virtualization. Although I really was kidding. If I did *anything*, I'd be more likely to migrate them to C++ Builder 12.1. Which may be worthwhile if EMBD releases a Community Edition of 12.1.

    I use Delphi 7 on Windows 10 nearly every workday. Fortunately, I don't spend much time in D7. But I'm thankful because I'm now used to a newer/better IDE experience. I rarely have stability issues with D7.
