It wasn't a brilliant strategy to start off with (MS Access via Silverlight ...err..what? .NET RIA Service team exists..oh..well..umm..ours will be better). I was pitched the idea when i first arrived on campus and asked the question "Why" other than selling SQL licenses there's not much to this especially when the Office team wake up from their slumber and move closer to the cloud. Either Lightswitch get sucked into that org tree or it better start selling SQL licenses by 100's otherwise i'd tell the team to start updating their LinkedIn accounts :)
That being said, the execution thats in front of us is good! good doesn't get your team budget / future roadmap/buy-ins though.. --- Regards, Scott Barnes http://www.riagenic.com On Sun, Jul 31, 2011 at 9:11 AM, David Connors <[email protected]> wrote: > On Sun, Jul 31, 2011 at 9:05 AM, Kirsten Greed <[email protected]>wrote: > >> Hi All**** >> >> I just had a play with VS Lightswitch**** >> >> I think it is really clever but oh so slow!**** >> >> Thoughts anyone?**** >> >> Kirsten >> > > I thought it was a joke I was too dumb to get when they announced it. > > I am undecided as to whether it will be LightSwitch or SharePoint that is > The New Access in terms of being the stuff corporate maintenance nightmares. > > Those who fail to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat it. > > -- > *David Connors* | [email protected] | www.codify.com > Software Engineer > Codify Pty Ltd > Phone: +61 (7) 3210 6268 | Facsimile: +61 (7) 3210 6269 | Mobile: +61 417 > 189 363 > V-Card: https://www.codify.com/cards/davidconnors > Address Info: https://www.codify.com/contact > >
