Well, I'm in general a fan of java, done many projects - but I'm more and more convinced that a huge java applet is not the best way for any webbased project. There are two things to consider: 1. it is much heavier, concerning load time/memory and so on. it depends on installing java, that's not default on win32! and 2. on the javascript side, in the future a lot will change when there are good JIT compilers. this could make js-code possibly ~10-100x faster! h --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
