One might argue that it is actually RunRev that is missing something strategic here - the potential and impact of HTML5. When I invested in Revolution a year ago, things were looking very promising for its potential for true cross-platform application development. RunRev had just announced

What is lacking *is* revServer - it's prerelease and now hasn't been touched for over a year, except for the recent minor clean-up of library requirements to ease Linux installation of the pre-release. There is no current general release LiveCode server deployment product that can serve HTML

It's not at all the rule of LC-Server to handle HTML, CSS, JS, AJAX for us, nor PHP or Java does. See the usefull Ralf Bitter's RevIgniter solution for this (or any of the great JQuery, Mootools, etc... options), if needed. LC-Server is a professional grade server-side engine, no less, no

Agreed - and revIgniter is wonderful, too. But cloud services built in this environment are not sellable to Enterprise customers if the underlying server is an unknown technology, stagnating in a pre-beta release state. If revServer is really as good as we all think, why hasn't RunRev released

altho it is much easier to create one code for several platforms in LC, then for example in C, it's still a huge annoyance to deal with platform specifics. just think about saving stuff on desktops. you need to use a two- (or three-)way platform switch just for the default location to save to.
