Hi All from my perspective mmbase is little more than an abstract framework - not because of what it delivers (before anyone takes offence), but because of the way I'm using it. I like the cloud, security, tags, etc, but my needs are more complex than mmbase can deliver, so I have to build a vertical framework on top of mmbase - which is a state machine/rules engine framework, which I then have to build my final application on top of.
To my mind "integration" sounds like more of the same (replacement of existing functionality), whereas building vertical frameworks on top of what already exists will be a far better use of time - will also mean that the core mmbase framework will change less and therefore become a lot more stable over time. WIAB partly did something along the lines of a framework - incorporated into the application, but it was built for a purpose rather than with a generic approach to delivery in mind.
