Binary shows the file content as hex values and you can even edit it. Dropping f.i. a dcu file into the editor makes it pretty clear.

If you comment out all of the code then the library will compile. And we all know that once a piece of code compiles, the job of the programmer is done.

As a solo maintainer of an open-source library myself I can say this: if that person does not have a working dev environment installed anymore and does not have time to work on it - I personally consider that project being de facto dead. That is not an offense but there has to be taken action. Nobody can blame you for not working on a spare time project if you got no time or the mood to. But if that project is of fundamental importance - and I consider Indy as a crucial piece of the 3rd party ecosystem for Delphi - there needs to be something done about it. Not having an up-to-date networking library available (yes I know there are several others, but Indy always has been out of the box and freely available) is one of the many reasons that make Delphi unappealing for decision-makers.

Me and my family are fine, now. Thanks!

@Dalija Prasnikar something for the second edition 😉 - https://github.com/VSoftTechnologies/VSoft.Messaging It's the messaging system we use in FinalBuilder - uses TObject.Dispatch and unlike System.Messaging, it's threadsafe. Works with VCL and FMX, although I have not tested on mobile as I don't do mobile dev.
