Jim,
Sorry you couldn't come to the show. Both Richard Gaskin and I presented on this subject and Chipp Walters showed an incredible commercial product (Hemingway client application) during his talk on user interface. We showed product, some code, a transaction log, and Richard did an impersonation of a client application talking to an FTP server (VERY entertaining, but even more informative!)
If there is demand out there (and it sounds like there may be) for a starter kit for building thin clients that "go against" web servers to get files and data from a database, I could try and make the time to put together a couple of samples with well-documented code, etc.
Also, please indicate the types of "nuts and bolts" into which you'd like to delve.
Best,
Jerry

I am one of the many Rev users who wish they could have been at the conference, and my main interest in going was the session on using Rev "thin clients" with a PHP/MySQL server. I have done some limited development in the past with DB-backed sites, and have groaned with frustration trying to make a decent user interface in a browser. I am giddy with the possibilities of using a Rev app as my front end for private collaboration sites I am working on.
Anyway, now I want to get into the nuts and bolts of this. Are there resources available from your session, or other resources for guidance/tips/examples on implementing this? Thanks.
