RE: [flexcoders] RIAs

[David Mendels]

Hi,   I can't recall exactly.  There was a group of us debating the company product strategy and vision under the code name "Trinity" in mid to late 2001.  Jeremy Allaire, Kevin Lynch, Adam Berry, Tom Hale, Mike Sundermeyer, Jon Gay, and myself were all on the threads (apologies to folks I may have left off).  We considered a lot of phrases in that period.  I remember Adam saying "you can never be too rich or too thin" and pushing for Rich Thin Client.  Others liked "Rich Client application" or "Smart Client application." I can't say exactly which of us first uttered "Rich Internet Application" or when it stuck.  If I had to guess, Adam probably made it stick.  But that would be an educated guess only at this stage....several million emails and conversations have passed since then :)   -David     From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of JesterXL Sent: Thursday, June 02, 2005 2:32 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] RIAs I reckon it was Jeremy Allaire:   http://www.markme.com/jd/archives/005423.cfm   Can't corraborate that, though.   ???     ----- Original Message ----- From: Benjamin Dobler To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, June 02, 2005 2:26 PM Subject: [flexcoders] RIAs Hi All,   Does anyone remember when the word RIA (Rich Internet Application) first appeared. Who invented the term? I think it was someone at MM but i can`t remember.     Benjamin     RichApps.de RIA Development   Benjamin Dobler   web:   | http://www.richapps.de mail:   | [EMAIL PROTECTED]   Yahoo!
