David, Alex Sure we need both structure and infrastructure but we need first a common programming base... Without this the rest wont follow... There's has to be goal...
We know there is demand and that there is support behind. We know that there are suppliers (scripters) and lots of background experience to be mixed in... But if we do not set a "framework" ground, there's little change we can avoid chaos. CVS for example is primordial for the developper but we need a common storage and format to go forward before we can say we do it "all" that way. Ruby on Rails has apparently a phylosophy to it too. Not following it leads to chaos and bloat compared to finess and smooth applications... This is a big part in what I propose... The rest should be simple for anyone to add on thereafter and others to review... cheers Xavier > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > david bovill > Sent: Saturday, October 15, 2005 4:54 PM > To: How to use Revolution > Subject: Re: Open source collaboration [WAS: Re: Rev vs. > AJAX...
