I agree that On-Rev is very important to the user base, even if we are
not all using it. At the moment I am not using it, but I will be in
the next 4-6 months. Web apps are squarely in the category of cross-
platform, cross-browser solutions that unify organizations across
international boundaries.
My vote, keep the comments here because the activity, questions, and
issues definitely affect those not yet on the service.

My apologies. I had considered that since On-Rev is just Revolution
on
the web, that it was not off-topic. Also that people who were not yet
signed up and therefore did not have access to the On-Rev forums
might
have been interested in the possibilities.
I appreciate Mark's comment about keeping noise here down so this
will be my only comment on this, but I believe On-Rev discussion is
a valuable part of this list which should remain here.
Rev encompasses the breadth of modern mainstream computing:
Windows, Mac, Linux, and the web. With the CGI it's been this way
for years, and now with the new enhanced server components it's only
getting better.
The lines between the desktop and the web are becoming blurred, with
browser-based apps taking on new capabilities once only possible on
the desktop, and desktop apps taking advantage of Internet
protocols for shared workflows, immediate updates, and more.
I see no significant distinction between On-Rev and the desktop
Revolution product. They occupy different ends of a spectrum of
capabilities, and together they cover the range of options across
that spectrum.
So FWIW, I would suggest that On-Rev discussion remain here as the
valuable contribution it is, addressing the other half of modern
client-server systems.
