Hi Richard,

I recently took this leap, but on a smaller scale. Even after thorough local testing on multiple PC and Mac operating systems, my client had problems. This taught me to wait until well after the first non-beta release. Once things are truly stable, I will dip my feet back in these waters. Until then, I am using other development environments.

We only get one chance at first impressions.

I'm within a week of releasing a fairly extensive commercial revweb project, which will immediately have traffic in the thousands (based on my existing Rev software and user database). I'm feeling a little uncertain about this, given the state of the plugin (which mostly works quite well). I've only tested my program on XP and Firefox so far, but will do much more thorough testing this week, including asking folks here to help in the testing process.

One concern I have is that the plugin will likely be upgraded again soon (in a week?... two weeks?... unknown)... meaning all my users will have to reinstall it.... which means downloading the new version, shutting down their browser, installing the new plugin, then restarting. Yes, they have to do this with other well known plugins, but will they be concerned that this process will be all- too-frequent with the Rev plugin? And for that matter, what am I even telling them about a revweb-based site? Am I telling them to essentially ignore the security concerns (I use every permission, other than the registry)?

Will there be problems with other configurations of an OS and browser? I hope to find this out shortly, but what if they have a somewhat older version of a browser? There's been so little revweb real-world experience to date.

Anyone else on the verge of taking this leap? Or better yet, has anyone else already made the leap? Any particular thoughts on this matter?

Thanks.
Richard Miller
