Ok thanks. I remember some years back there was talk about it integrating with some sort of server for use in schools or something. However my brain is a bit rusty lately. Sometimes when open source projects grow into a niche like schools or enterprise, they ditch home use.
Now I'm just curious about that weblive thing. I seriously wonder how that works and just how meaty the server needs to be to handle it. I wouldn't have time to admin anything like that, but I do have some idle capacity with AWS I could donate if it doesn't need too much. Does anyone know what the weblive thing is all about?
