Hi all, http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2012/05/no-cost-desktop-software-development-is-dead-on-windows-8/
Some hightlights: "If you want to develop desktop applications—anything that runs at the command line or on the conventional Windows desktop that remains a fully supported, integral, essential part of Windows 8—you'll have two options: stick with the current Visual C++ 2010 Express and Visual C# 2010 Express products, or pay about $400-500 for Visual Studio 11 Professional" "Visual Studio 11 Express will be able to produce HTML and JavaScript websites, and nothing more." "Windows 8: the Windows SDK for windows 8 will not include a compiler toolchain at all" The rules of the game are changing. -- Jesús Corrius <[email protected]> Deputy of the Board of Directors The Document Foundation, Zimmerstr. 69, 10117 Berlin,Germany Rechtsfähige Stiftung des bürgerlichen Rechts Legal details: http://www.documentfoundation.org/imprint _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
