Borland tend not to announce anything until they are actually shipping
the product.  It's an annoying habit, but as the customers have lived
with it all this time I doubt it is about to change.

Their annual conference is first week of November, and as this is their
'20th anniversary' I get the impression they are queuing up 'big'
announcements/releases for then.  The little they have said on the next
C++ compiler (new compiler, 100% ISO) suggest this is exactly the sort
of thing that would like to announce there.  But now I am into the realm
of speculation rather than informed comment.  Personally I don't expect
to see much movement from Borland on the compiler front until then
though.
