Does anyone have full source to Bold?

It seems Borland is no longer maintaining Bold.

So where can we get full sources so we can keep using it with new versions
of Delphi?

No.
I have the same problem.
I also try to compile that stuff on my own, but some important files are
missing.
Inside Bold are some files used from other third-party companies.
The OCL-Statement parser stuff (files SSLexU, SSYaccU, SSExcept)seems to be
from http://www.sand-stone.com/ .
I sent them a mail and asked how to get these files but no answer until now.

So if you find a solution, then let us know!

CapableObjects do not own the Bold source code. Borland/CG does. Please contact
Nick Hodges and ask him about it. He's the best representative of ownership,
I would presume. Tell him I sent you.

The run time bits (less the OCL parser) are available from CDN/BDN somewhere.
I must admit I haven't even tried to recompile it for Highlander.

Are there any other 3rd-Party units inside bold ?

I talked to Nick Hodges at EKON last year about this problem
and Frederik Hauglund but nothing has happend.

The distributed files in the package for 2006 contains more sources.
But there are some missinge .dpk, *reg.pas files and sources of
boldprogator,boldpropagatorservice.

Hello DelphiUser,

Yes. I can't remember now, but there were some bits that came in from elsewhere,
but fully licensed for redistribution.

Jesper, and all on this thread!

Yes, Code Gear needs to step up and solve this. We are all Delphi
users, and Bold is the magical ingredient!
