Ton, I think we're saying the same thing, but I do think it's up to the poster to RELATE news or info about non-rev apps, sites, etc. BACK to what it means to a Revolution developer. Or how it might be of value to us.
like so... Hey, the new version of Textwrangler really has a nice grep...wonder how that get it to work across all those tabs. Wouldn't it be great to have that in one of the Rev script editors? 'nother example: Chipp's diagrammer doesn't help us make Rev apps directly, but it gives Rev app builders about a million ideas about stuff THEY could do in Rev. Plus, he built it in Rev. You might respond to his post by saying: Hey Chipp, how'd you do...[whatever you're curious about].
