Mike et al. I am not an investor. I produce open source apps and closed source apps in Rev. I produce them in Macs and deliver in windows and linux with success. And yes, I build web applications in Rev.
I am not biased. Some stuff could be made simpler or easier, like the FFI and being able to use native syntax but I don't think and open source revolution is the way to go now. I belive we would not have that wonderful team we have working full time on the product if we went opensource. There are many threads on this list by people telling runrev how to manage their business. Of all the xTalks out there, they appear to be the only one gaining grounds and staying up. And I keep seeing lots of "I know more bout management of a company than all you guys" mails on the list. They are closed source, that does not mean tyranny or that we're on a fight with them. I am getting really tired of those threads. No one said a single plausible, logical, reason to go open source now. I don't care about 20 years ago, Rev is not HC. RunRev is not Apple, Adobe or Google. RunRev is a small team company in scotland. We can work together, we've been doing that for years and we're doing fine. If you guys belive that open source would squash bugs, then why don't you gather a group and build regression tests. Then when RunRev team builds a new engine, they can try your tests and please you. I am tired of OSS pointless discussions... I want to get back to talking code, software and things like that. We can build repositories of code you know, there are plenty, we even have a subversion external that Chris and Chipp presented in RevCon West. We can build open source libraries, check libCGI or my EasyCGI. We can build web applications, we could do better in that area, but still we can! check http://www.himalayanacademy.com/resources/lexicon for a web app made with Rev. I don't understand what are you guys in need of. andre _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
