<p>- attributes are being worked on<br>
- for anonymous methods exists a branch with an initial
implementation though this is currently on hiatus :(<br>

finished, generic methods are planned next)<br>
- what do you miss for interfaces?<br>

Can you elaborate on unicode support? IIRC, there were many
discussions without any conclusion.<br>

<br>
You are basically right with your "many discussions without any
conclusions", but the code page aware string IS implemented and in a
seperate branch the RTL is prepared to handle that (and
UnicodeString) correctly. So that in the future at least from a
technical point nothing would stop us from switching the default
string type to UnicodeString (that it won't be that easy practically
is a different topic...).<br>
