On their developer site they say something along the lines of "Uhm,
open-source great, foundation of the web, will open-source something don't
know yet what, non-commercial use will remain free, commercial use will be
metered (!) - [by kB transmitted or 'saved', not yet clear to me] - and
that's how we'll make $1b/yr." - So well.
Nevertheless, the system has some nice aspects - especially the Graphics
components _seem_ to be more powerful than R/V's. However, they don't even
have anything XML-related in the package - and neither I've seen sound
support ... but why bothering about an "application environment" then?!
Thanks for the opinions,
Chris
