I could see how someone could take my framework, and then build on it,
and then export witango to php code. Prototyping in witango is great.
But no one is going to do it, unless they already own witango. There
is really no compelling reason to buy into it, so expensive, for
prototyping. So you would spend all that time and money to build it,
for just the remaining people in witango to use.

I really like how witango has the ability to export as java and IMO it
seems like there might be a really good strategy here...
Imagine if the witango editor was a stand alone "dev studio" type app
where you could create and prototype things quickly then say "execute"
to fire up a limited witango server (like the lite or trial version)
to test your code right there as you were developing it.
When you were done developing, you could choose to export as Java,
PHP, CF, asp/asp.net, or whatever other languages may be popular at
the time.
Also available for sale was the servers that are sold now that could
run the native witango code (and maybe had some other pluses as to why
youd want to use it vs the exportable languages)
I'm not much of a business man, and don't know if this would be a good
model to go with, but it sounds like a neat idea to me....
Web developers like us could buy the witango editor for maybe a couple
hundred dollars and write things quickly and export it to whatever
language our clients may want keeping us and our clients happy.
Then also, if we wanted a highly optomized witango specific server we
could buy that too for the clients who wanted to go that route.
Seems like it would help keep the community alive and get more
exposure to witango while also generating revenue.
But yeah, I'm no business expert and don't know With's current status
or business model :P

I agree with Rick, the list is now seasoned developers no longer
pushing the
"witango envelope".
Nice to see people checking in though ....

Subject: Re: Witango-Talk: is witango alive?
Maybe "no news is good news" as far as the list being quiet.
Nobody is reporting problems, maybe things are just working smoothly
for everyone (:
Either that or everybody else has left...
Maybe we should have a roll-call?
PRESENT, and I brought my pencil ;-)
Scott,
