Delphi Gems: Graphics. I've been building a little graphics tool in Delphi and hope to release it soon. This package (GraphicsEx) will make my job so much easier. Gotta love the Delphi community!

Want: A Delphi-friendly build management tool. If you developing Windows applications using Delphi and you’re familiar with ant, you might be interested in want. Want is a port of ant to Delphi and runs under Windows (and will probably be ported to Kylix soon). GPL’d at that.

The author of Want, Juancarlo Añez, has also developed a Delphi version of JUnit appropriately called DUnit. A great framework for unit testing your Delphi code.

Delphi 6 XML data bindings. Delphi 6 allows you to take a schema to build a set of interfaces (created by a Delphi wizard) for accessing an XML document through simple code:

you would refer to the name element like so: sName := PurchaseOrder.Customer.Name;

Powerful stuff. The data binding also eliminates the complexity of XML schema. It sounds like Delphi 6 is going to be a powerful tool for doing XML development for both client and server.
