Hi all, In light of recent Microsoft surprising U-turn announcement [1] that in Windows 8 it swithes to HTML5 (HTML5+CSS+JavaScript) instead of .NET+WPF and Silverlight for desktop app development it is IMO a right time to think about:
1. is this a clear signal that HTML5 for ALL apps, both desktop and the web is inevitable? 2. is this a clear signal that we need to rebuild Morphic on top of HTML+CSS, to leverage all Morphic advantages and come back to bleeding edge again? I think yes. What Squeak/Pharo/Cuis GUI masters say?
