Thanks Thomas. Another great discussion, but I'm really surprised by all of 
the enterprise software hate.

Obviously, the core issue is that too many people don't get the Web, but

As I said, we sell software that is compiled by GWT and deployed behind 
firewalls within organizations. We can recompile and post patches, but it's 
up to them to redeploy. They might not see that code for 6-12 months in 
some cases depending on their policies. To give you a sense of the 
challenge, many of them are still using IE7 as their primary browser, but 
of course those people weren't affected.

You might argue everything web should be SAAS, but many of our customers 
aren't going there and have good reasons.

I hope you can appreciate my predicament.
