gb.info has been removed. But I forgot to remove it from the IDE list.

This is the normal behaviour now.

Form were closed automatically in the past, because the first opened form 
automatically became the "main window". Closing the main window closes all 
other forms.

But that behaviour is sometimes unwanted, so it must be explicit now, by 
defining the Application.MainWindow property. Otherwise, there is no main 
window at all, and forms must be closed explicitely.
