developers make them for their own collections of related wares. But
attempting to deploy general application designs in a player introduces
other challenges, including menu management, name space considerations, and
general design issues (this topic came up recently on the SC list:
<http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SuperCard/message/11596>).
So what would make good candidates for distribution in a player? What would
be an example of "things that share a common focus"?
Most of the regular users dont like to download Players, Plugins and all that kind of stuff..
But, what are about a "Flash-player-plugin"-building Distribution stack? So that any Rev stack can be viewed directly in the Browser window.
Whole sites could be done without dooing the same again in html...
Stacks can be streamed directly into the browser without QT, RM, WMP
Running a rev app in the "browser", connect directly to SQL dbs.
Save also developing time for distributing rev apps on different mediums (again no QT, RM, WMP)
And a lot more...
One tip more: pls dont be focused to stronge at "your" favorite product. Pls have a look at others too. see the great success of Qarbon, when they changed their viewlet fileformat from Java to swf format...)
I personally dont like Flash, but its imho the only Standard in the web which is not in danger to be killer from M$ because M$ is married with sfw. Before killing it M$ will buy MM. And then is time enough for SVG.
I m not a scripter, so I dont know how to do that and how its possible. But I know THAT would give rev the chance to become a real killer app.
Sorry if my idea is stupid, because of my ignorance in hardcore developing...
My 2cent...
