Hi,
sorry, just post to the other thread ... but here I have some other note.

> Pivot is still showing normal early stage adoption i.e. a trickle of interest.
I know, for example until now (after many months I work on Pivot) I'm
unable to provide my customers solutions based on Pivot, the feedback
is always great, all is interesting, good, etc but at the end the
solution it's always the same: dynamic web pages and in some cases
some Flash widget (nor Flex, nor Silverlight :-) ), ok could also be a
market problem where I live (and in my customers), but in many cases I
think that RIA solutions are still too forward, because also it's
simpler to find some people to write a jsp/jsf page, but to write a
really good application a developer is needed.
And note that we are also paying for the (many) old Java Plugin and
Swing bugs, but since Java 6 Update 10 many things are really changed
here.
So I think that we still need some time for the market (and customer
minds) to evolve ... and I repeat here (taken from my other post) we
have to provide some real-world killer feature.

> Pivot-guru: "Adding that feature doesn't really fit into our architecture"
I agree completely with this, I asked many times for a folder in
svn/trunk where publish experimental work and discuss/review with
others (if interested), if not on apache on Google Code or other.
