I have taken over from Nick as maintaier of the perl backend, we use it in production ... I will be glad to term it 1.0 for the 1.0 qooxdoo release ... As for your unification idea ... I am actually looking at going into the oposite direction, my ideal situation would be that each backend follows the 'natural' way things are done in the respective language ... (the perl backend is not ideal in this respect yet btw). Why have different language support when it is only half hearted by pushing a paradigm on a language which does not match its way of dealing with web-services. I am looking at maybe using Mojo as a basis for a future/alternate version of the backend, but for now I am quite happy with the state the perl backend is in ... (is actualy anyone besides us here at O+P using this ? cheers tobi -- Tobi Oetiker, OETIKER+PARTNER AG, Aarweg 15 CH-4600 Olten, Switzerland http://it.oetiker.ch [email protected] ++41 62 775 9902 / sb: -9900 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
