My 2 more cents:
I think elsewhere in your post you put your finger on part of the
problem. Many people on the list came to Rev from Hypercard. To take
myself as a still-very-newbie example, I was programming happily away
in Python until I got this project of reviving a tutorial I'd written
in Hypercard 835 years ago -- and Dreamcard was the obvious way to do
it. (The thought of building all that interface in wxPython was
depressing, because here's an app that's practically ALL interface &
no computational guts.) But if I hadn't had Hypercard in my head as a
model, would it have occurred to me? If you know Hypercard the
attractions of Rev are obvious; but if you don't . . . I think it's
those who don't (didn't) who need The Demo. (Even wxPython, by the
way, has a nice package of small demos that comes with the download,
exemplifying just about every widget. Porting that to Rev might be fun.)
