That's plan A. <s> Lianja is a plan B that's worth putting time into.

>>Lianja (http://www.lianja.com) promises to be the killer developer system for which we have all been waiting.
>>
>>-- VFP compatible
>>-- programmable in Recital Script, VFP, Python, Javascript (they obviously dream of Abstract Syntax Trees <s>)
>>-- hit DBF's (they are a project within Recital, which has been doing xBase forever) or SQL
>>-- WebClient automatically generated, runnable on any platform, any device
>>
>>There are many questions to be answered, of course:
>>
>>-- will it really do all that?
>>-- will they be responsive to developer needs?
>>-- will the cost be feasible for both small custom development shops and ISVs with broad deployment?
>>
>>If they deliver, I can't imagine a much better tool to move from today into the future.
>>
>>If they don't deliver, well, what ya gonna do?
>>
>>As Recital, they have a history of stability, which I think mitigates the "do you really want to put your future in a company that might go away" factor. As their only modern product, I think the "what happens when they make the product go away because middle managers want to make their bonuses" also becomes moot.
>>
>>Beta 2 will be available in a couple of weeks, from what I have been told by Barry Mavin, who is CEO and Chief Software Architect (and has been so for at least the last 13 years -- they do have stability).
>>
>>The purpose of this forum is primarily to inform UT users of what's going on with this potentially important product. It also have a purpose in providing a place for discussion when Lianja forum is closed (don't ask: they just don't understand community, even when it's explained to them).
