excelent idear! finally i can apply all my hot vba code
within the mmbase
framework :).
But sereously, how should i see this. Are there going to be twoo
completely
independed branches, that will or will
not be kept in sync? Would you
propose all kind of
serverside functionality that only works on nt? I guess
the only one who would really like this is Bill. last i heard Hotmail
is
being hosted on freeBSD :)
I think mmbase should allways be platform independend.
