[REBOL] Re: Need help for justification of using REBOL as dev language

Brett:

Sorry for this: I had to put the details in my request in order to make it
more clear ;-(

Basically, on each test station a local REBOL page server respond to
requests emitted by html page and generate and send new html pages. 

Those generated html pages are used as the GUI, and are composed of
DHTML-Java-Javascript. Their generation is based on html templates in which
data are inserted. Those data are contained in a - primitive but functional
- REBOL OODB. Examples of data are a question and the possible multiple
choice answers to it, or the presence and layout of a time slider ...

When a test session has been executed, all tests are corrected by a REBOL
app, reports are generated using also DHTML-Java-Javascript pages templates
and the answers and results are inserted into a SQL Server DB for archive
and longitudinal studies use.

In terms of volume, based on what we can estimate until now, some 8000
persons/year should use the system, which should correspond to about
4,000,000 pages generated / year.

Do not hesitate to ask for more details, if you need it.

Thanks for answering !

Regards,

chr==
