Re: Announcing OpenLink Virtuoso, Open-Source Edition, v5.0.11

Tim,

That's a LOT of new features. Impressive.
( I guess we have all grown used to this, but there is a "couple of
startups worth" of work in every VOS release if you look closely ).

So, let's be honest:  Are you planning to release the time machine
code anytime soon?

I could really use some time traveling these days, my deadlines are
flying by. LOL!

Regards,
A
