Hi Jordan,

Since the Web Version of OD was discontinued because MS pulled to Silverlight license, I was wondering what you thought about programming it in revTalk. It is Free, Easy, Fast and Multiplatform. One programmer coding in revTalk can do the work of 10 programmers coding in C#. We could have the Web Version of OD up and running by February.

Here is the link to revTalk:

I just read their manual. Their first version with web capability was only released 18 days ago, although the language has been around for decades. Yes, it does look fast to write code. It looks most useful to amature programmers rather than professional developers.

In any case, all licensing issues are resolved, and we will undoubtedly continue development of a web version in Silverlight.

What does that mean? Does it mean you are enthusiastic about the possibility of a web version?

well, yes, i am very enthusastic about a web version, but admittedly i was expressing suprise at the "amateur programmer" tag.

Any good news about web based OD? I am too much interested to experience it.
