The recurrent subject comes again...(usually on a quarterly basis)

If bugs are of same quality of those recently reported, I fear that the new
platform quest will be a waste of time...

Strange idea. Why do you want to plot without using EL?
Why a DLL here ?

My opinion is that you have time to spend to visit luxurious booths and
collect 4 colors paper ads.
EL does not have bugs that will not aloow you to code what you need. But EL
needs some work and understanding, what you will not find at the Expo.
