Hi all. Mason 1 has paid my bills for over 7 years plus. It is amazing. I get what he is saying. But all Linux distributions now support it. gone are are the days of libapreq2 pain. I guess what I am trying to say is that I have many many components that would help folks. In fact now I am jQuery and jqGrid focused I have them them as well. Serverd up through Mason. But know way to give back. Mason 1 is shunned but why? Mason2 is a concept. I deal with production.
In the real world Mason 2 is not ready and I am not ready to switch. I am hoping. I have so much to give back to working with Mason 1 but have no means to do so. Mason has always been amazing. But I have not jumped on the new 2 bandwagon. I know it will evolve, but at the moment I need production. Sorry for rambling. Mason has been my life for years. It is amazing. Have not taken Mason 2 seriously yet. -Bill On 02/10/2012 08:02 PM, Dave Rolsky wrote: > On Thu, 9 Feb 2012, Jonathan Swartz wrote: > >> I like the wiki idea very much in principle - it's why I started the masonhq >> wiki years >> ago.
