Re: The road ahead

The end of the year wouldn't be bad.

Other development environments have found it really difficult to incorporate 
the transition to Cocoa from Carbon and it has
taken far, far longer than the initial plan.

Hopefully LiveCode will not suffer the same fate.

All the best

Late Autumn is a fairly vague timeframe... My guess is that means the end of 
the year... Resolution independence is well under way with the work Ian is 
doing on the graphics library. The others need to wait for things to be done in 
the right order I think...

Re: The road ahead

I don't comment often on the list because LiveCode is not currently my main 
development environment.

I would like it to be but I am waiting for further developments before a commit.

I thought this simple question would be valid.

Resolution Independance: £357,000
Pluggable Themes: £376,000
Cocoa: £405,000

Delivery Estimate

These goals would be next on our to-do list after we complete the next 
generation platform. If you fund these as stretch goals it means we can start 
on them now, plugging them into the next generation platform architecture as we 
go, instead of starting on them after the launch of the next generation 
platform in the fall. While we cannot guarantee an exact delivery date, it does 
mean we will be able to deliver them in a similar time scale to the main 
project as opposed to some point in 2014. So you should get your hands on these 
tasty treats by late autumn of this year!

The above is from the KickStarter campaign. Is LiveCode still on track to meet 
these goals?


All the best

The road ahead

nothing to do with Mr Gates . . .

useful reference:

http://livecode.com/community/roadmap/

tick them off as/if they are brought to fruition.

Richmond.

PS. Maybe should be titled "The road, a head"

and see if it gets from inside our heads out into the real world :)
