Where/When/Whether translates for me to: - Where - an updated snapshot of supported platforms, what is and what is not supported in terms of features - When - an updated roadmap of features. The hard facts, and the soft directions. - Whether - things you should and should not plan for in a project. Rumours vs best practice These elements are possible to address, as part of a general community publication, but I think there are not enough resources for this as a standalone publication. I believe they should be associated with the existing documentation, and linked to an open source publication of useful code, libraries and widgets. At the next LiveCode TV event, I'll show the new distributed wiki, and how that can glue the documentation, code samples and your Where/When/Whether together in a way in which everyone has there own local content, but sharing is transparently done in the background. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
