Furthermore, we are committing to release a fully localized French version of REALbasic and accompanying documentation in the very near future," added Pierre Groleau. "And most importantly, we will also be addressing one of the most common requests from prospective users of REALbasic in France: they can now purchase our products directly from REAL Software, on our site, www.realsoftware.com/fr/store ."
