From: Patrick Vletter (Prive) on 4 Oct 2006 03:03 Erik, This has also been stated very clearly on the VOPS-forums by Mr Grafx himself... I also cannot recall any statement by Brian or anyone from Grafx stating otherwise...

From: Geoff Schaller on 4 Oct 2006 03:14 Erik. Ok, Let's be clear then. Your understanding is that GrafX intends to continue to develop the VO32 version of VO. In the past, Brian has often alluded to Vulcan as being "VO" development and that pure VO need not continue as a WIN32 product. So this means that GrafX will be continuing two separate VO development streams: a Win32 and a Dot Net version. Correct?
