Gerald, I don't run the list and really appreciate Steven's desire to keep "on topic". So many list degrade to noise quickly. So thanks for your explanation. XUL has a specific meaning to many as a specific language (as does XAML and MXML) but if you are using it here it more generally as "XML UI" language that is a big umbrella for MXML and many others. I think having real exchange with folks deep in multiple XML UI languages is great. But it might be helpful to consider the communication because it is easy to conflate the concept of XML UI language (XUL) and a specific approach the XML UI language (XUL). Maybe there is a better acronym for the former so as not to confuse folks? -David > -----Original Message----- > From: luxorxul [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2004 5:25 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [flexcoders] Re: International XUL Meetup Day - More > @ xul.meetup.com > > Hello, > > > Meetup.com - a site that helps in organizing local > interest groups > > - has opened up a XUL chapter. > > > > Now you can join and link up with fellow XUL coders and > designers > > at local cafes (and other places) in 612 cities across 51 > countries. > > Every 1st Tuesday of every month is now officially > International XUL > > Meetup Day! > > > > Meetup with other local XML UI Language (XUL) coders and > designers > > to discuss the future of the rich > > internet for everyone. > > > > Full story @ http://xul.meetup.com > > Just to clear up a possible misunderstanding.
