I think it will most definitely deliver on promises... but, as we see with the article, it will probably take a bit of time to iron out both the foreseen and unforeseen creases. Will definitely be an interesting wrestling match to be seen amongst the giants (where I predict Adobe will not fare as well as they would hope - with Bruce Chizen out of the picture and Shuntanu left in charge, the price of "first on stage" privileges may be a little steep under his leadership (just MHO though) - the run has been nice for them... but we only need to look at today which is SOOO different then even a few ago... Wile a few well-doers were struggling to get even a small share of the PDF market, Adobe enjoyed their hard earned quasi-monopoly. Now, PDF creating app/software is out there, many for free (thanks to Bruce really for going to ISO ;)) Now, PDF enabled technologies like web2py, has enough PDF functionality to satisfy even ardent users, AND great interoperability with its existing existing built-in technologies.
So with HTML 5 and all those great multi-media capable/ready possibilities... I think, (or rather I predict) that the biggest winners may be unexpected: the open Source community. so, my thoughts on that? I think that web2py & its community are well positioned and will clearly benefit by its "official" arrival. And, thinking of the sample that was posted a few weeks ago with the welcome app on HTML 5, clearly web2py will be in a great space to integrate the exciting new stuff to the proven, and certainly no less exciting stuff of today! :) SO, where to start indeed... I can get the latest and greatest, install and post a little report on the findings. Thinking the logistics... would be nice to have some place to post as well as manage all the related data/documents/filesets (like a project management area where we could all collaborate...) Stay tuned! Mart :) On Oct 6, 3:17 pm, slestak <slestak...@gmail.com> wrote: > Festival is another toolkit that may be of use.
