Community source? Does Macromedia expect sales to continue beyond the few
lingering projects which are too committed to Spectra to continue without
additional licenses? This looks like a sure way to kill the product by
discontinuing it without releasing it (like Forums) into the open
source/free market. Could there conceivably be a time when this happens?
At that point it would become a very highly developed, free, opensource
"killer app" written in CF, instead of a costly, dead end product...
Raymond, you getting a new title? :)
