See, I disagree here. The message should probably be something like: "Switch to AOLserver, you'll be able to leverage the vast knowledge you already have and be as productive as you already are. Then, as you learn more and more Tcl and how to take advantage of AOLserver's features, you'll be even more productive." The learning curve is a big hurdle to technology adoption. Flattening that curve by letting folks migrate to AOLserver while maintaining their current levels of productivity ... will only ease the pain of migration. The thing we don't tell them up front is that once they get a taste of how much easier it is to do lots of things in Tcl, they'll never want to go back to their old ways. :-) -- Dossy -- Dossy Shiobara mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Panoptic Computer Network web: http://www.panoptic.com/ "He realized the fastest way to change is to laugh at your own folly -- then you can let go and quickly move on."
