I have to use Basecamp at work. Frankly, it's a useless piece of junk. Yes, it has some shiny AJAX crap... but it's pretty buggy. (For example, try typing a < or > in the comments field. It gets passed verbatim to the client, screwing up the rendering of the page. If they used Catalyst and TT, it would be a 5 *byte* fix, i.e. [% comment | html %]) Pretty much, Basecamp is like every other piece of proprietary software -- they already have our money, so why should they fix our bugs? (The other outstanding issue is that we need for milestones to have estimated times attached to them, so we can make charts via their XML-RPC interface. Actually, "need" isn't the right word...) > Catalyst needs an equivalent of 37Signals bigging it up all over the > *business* press. > Has anyone written a printed Catalyst book yet? That's probably the first step. Some PODs at search.cpan doesn't really get the manager types excited. Regards, Jonathan Rockway
