Atronixengineering's ZOE or zoomable interface is built entirely on Gobs and custom widgets without r3gui, and the long term aim is to move it to openGl.

Was DELECT so harmful we had to remove it without any replacement ?

IIRC, DELECT was brought to the table, to speed-up some simple dialects/bridges, mainly for the command interface of R3 extensions? With later changes, some claimed, it is not needed anymore. Not sure though. One thing is clear - later on, R3 got FFI, and as for REN-C fork, IIRC, the plan is to remove R3 extensions altogether?

The original mechanism of extensions was a result of RT's closed source. Now that's open source we are able to use a more workablel solution. And with that, non-core elements such as encryption, FFI, image handling etc are being moved into extensions.
GrahamC
And that's delaying the release of the ODBC extension as it's being decided how to best move this stuff out of the core.

Next time I hope something is totally removed after another solution is already in place
