I agree there's no formal specification, Dave. We're all working
developers and though people contribute enormously to spreading Fusebox,
we haven't created a formal spec. That may come at some point, but most
of our efforts are focused on helping people learn use Fusebox to
achieve successful software projects.

In response to your question to Steve, Tim Heald asked us to respond to
some Fusebox talk on the CF-List. I'm happy to try to help, but I know
that some folks have an animus against Fusebox that I can't help with.
In short, if I can offer info, I will but I respect your time too much
to waste it trying to convert you. Besides, my take on this is that
we're all in this together, Fuseboxers and non-Fuseboxers alike. We
share a common goal and a common love for creative programming. A lot of
people have found Fusebox helpful; some people don't. Let a thousand
flowers bloom, as the Chinese say.

Well, hi to you too Steve! What did they do, ring the alarm bell at
fusebox.org?

I went there, before posting the previous post, and there's nothing
there which is a specification. There are some implementations, there's
some documentation, but no specification in the formal sense.
