Correct - the revServer is supposed to be available for installation on other servers sometime this year, I believe. > RevBrowser would, if we had it, display ordinary web pages hosted anyplace > in a stack.

The idea with Rodeo is to give people an easier way to create web apps, targeted at the iPad.
