Thank you all. Yes, the old CGI engine Rocks, but what about the new one? Besides that we can not use the stacks, any of you tried to install the Pre-release 2 of Rev-Server ? Is it reliable? Is it stable? I wrote some scripts for the on-rev server. They works fine. As far as you know, is it a goo

I guess it's: "How to use RevServer in tandem with stacks?" And the answer is old style rev cgi. Every customer is entitled to mail runrev and demand the old cgi engine from them. I suggest every customer should do that. At least that is something one can actually do. On 18 Feb 2011, at 14:5

Thanks for the clarification Jaque. So, my expectations for the shipping version weren't too far off - as it would allow development using stacks (as with the desktop apps) and upon deployment to the server, a standard browser would be able to interact with the UI-specific, stack pages on the s
