I will for sure try it in the future.. but big issues I see at this point is the fact that there is only one developer (thats you.. right?) actively working on it.. I dont know if this is also true for the Neko VM, but again nicolas is the only name I see.
And as I recall correctly it only hit the 1.0 mark around a month ago.. This also means that there's still very little libraries available. If you need extra functionality you will most likely need C. It's hard to beat the few hundred people contributing to PHP or millions of users developing using PHP or Java as a platform. This is of course something that can change in the future.. and I hope it will.. Diversity is a very good thing.. I just think it takes more than 1 talented developer for the project to mature. And.. it might not be the worst idea to put a disclaimer under your emails.. I see a lot of plugs for haxe from you, which is not bad as long as its relevant to the subject, but let people know you are the author.. it doesnt mean anything about the the quality of the product.. it does however mean that your view about the subject is not objective.. ( I dont see the adobe people trying to sell coldfusion, and if they would there would be a lot critique about it) Evert _______________________________________________ osflash mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/osflash_osflash.org
