Why then isn't GetIt up and running?

Nice  I'll quote that one next time I cannot deliver on time and I'm facing fines (Usd 100 per. customer per day) for not delivering by the deadline.

Perhaps the damage was greater than reported - and maybe the damage also occurred at a different level.

Of course it is, they didn't report anything. 

And all this situation is a very bad sign about the future of Delphi.

I would consider this a report:

Maybe the story is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT - and what we assume may be a misdirection by forces above our pay grade. Maybe we can't see the true circumstances from our perspective, and maybe there is more to it than we know.

That much is certain.

When programming, I have often found that "thinking outside the box" sometimes leads to an unexpected and accurate solution.

There must be issues with the whole site, first off I wanted to give Delphi a try, so I signed up for the community edition, but it never sends the confirmation email with the license key you need to install it which is frustrating! I tried with two different email addresses and the same thing happens.

 

So I've now ended up on this post, but here's another issue, upon signing up to the forum I received the "Email confirmation" link, so I clicked on it, like you do, and visit a page stating a message like the image attached, though receive a confirmation complete email... that's definitely not right and also confusing.

 I was using the community version but unfortunately I wanted to reinstall for technical reasons , the day of the outage (no luck).😞
since that day  i am waiting for the finalization , as the community version can't be installed with an ISO.

what is happening is simply incredible coming from a company that sells IT services and tools.😠

 

Too bad because Delphi is a great tool.

And it's been nearly two weeks since that blog update without a peep (publically) about GetIt other than Ian being bombarded and saying they are working on it.

 

2 hours is bad downtime.  2 weeks without an update for an outage lasting 24+ days and counting.... well, I have no response.

 

If you avoid GetIt and discuss Quality Portal - the timeline on Jan 27 was "now" and "by next week, we'll have the new portal in place and we'll have a new blog post..."

Whoops, for some reason I must of assumed it was ran by Embarcadero.

No worries, you're not the first, and definitely wont be the last.

Sometimes unexpected and inaccurate

And the good news is:

 

Yay!!!

[Uwe Raabe 2057]

Unfortunately that doesn't address the CE problems, because the available GetIt server is only for Delphi 12.

That is a rather important point that I totally missed!

GetIt also looks active for C++ Builder 12.0 as well as Delphi

Well, everything that RADStudio 12.0 can contain, I suppose.
