Alain: Were they aware of HyperCard ? > Mark Rauterkus: Any other insights on BETA? Alain: Not yet. Among other things, I am waiting for feedback from our current FreeCard programmers. But mainly I have been insanely busy. Alain: My HyperCard/CGI educational web-sites system was not working at all like it used to in the previous millenium. I suspected that I had some kind of Millenium bug, despite the fact that my bugs (yes, more than one) had nothing to do with the date. I now suspect that they have instituted some changes in JavaScript that came into effect this Millenium. The Jury is not out on that one yet, though. I achieved my goal by other-means ... that turned out making my whole system much faster, much more reliable, much better :) I'm so happy, it tingles all over! If it is true that the satisfaction one derives from an activity is proportional to the effort invested to achieve it, then one must conclude that, in some respects, scripting is more satisfying than sex! ;-)) Alain: And now, I have a few days off to indulge into anything that I wish. Well, not anything. I still have to work, but I can work on what I want, without the pressure of a critical-deadline to meet. So I am going to dedicate some time to our FreeCard Collaboration, at last. It has been quiet lately. Uli has posted a few messages concerning "optimizing chunks", but there has not been much else. I have had no feedback whatsoever on my last volley concerning the licencing/partnership issues. Meanwhile, I am going to adapt the system that I alluded to above so that it becomes our web-site and collaboration infrastructure(s). Appropriately enough, my system is pure HyperCard. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo! Messenger. http://im.yahoo.com
