Yes. But it already supports most of the .NET 2.0 features (not talking of
WinForms here) including the ones metioned above and has a C# 2.0 compiler.

As I've already mentioned, it's not layout-based. Anchors only partially
solve the task, so problems can still appear when adding extra languages
interfaces to the application. Also, VCL is quite incomplete. Say, how much
sense does it make for button not to have color property, while other
components, like edit, label and check box have it? There are similar
situations with other objects, when it seems odd, why it doesn't have a
certain feature/property.
there are many components that solve this. I was quite astounded when
windows.forms came out that it did not have a functional grid
component. While mono/c# is nice, I greatly prefer the TDataset
interface to ado.net middleware. There are some VCL based database
middlewares, like zeos, which completely outclass odbc.
For a general purpose language, lately I've been taking a really good
look at 'D', which looks to be an amazing language. Has anybody tried
to hook up postgresql to D?
