Well, the Longhorn bloggers are backpedalling on that and are saying
that the quote is completely out of context. I would tend to agree with
them, except this is the second posting now about Avalon being delayed.
Adam Kinney made a hypoethical question of it here:
Being C++, it's not directly supported with MyXaml because of the
dependence on reflection, but I've done a brief look at Qt# and wx.Net.
Both of these have similar problems as GTK#--many classes do not
support parameterless constructors and there are probably issues with
creating object
I guess we have different understandings of the term "open". For
example, by your definition, .NET is "open" because Microsoft provides
the runtime for free. I'm not even sure what "open" means in this
context. How is it "open"? As to proprietary, I don't understand how
you're using this term
Thanks for heads-up Gerald. I'm going to have to give that a try!

Has anyone tried out using MyXAML for Gtk# running

Did he miss out on something? Yeah. MyXaml.
I also think he is too focused on the whole presentation layer thing and
doesn't see the benefits of markup being used to drive generic class
instantiation.
It's an uphill battle, getting people to think outside of the box that

Thanks for the post, Gerald.
IBM says:
The IBM Reflexive User Interface Builder differs
from other XML-based GUI systems in that it uses Java
Reflection APIs to create its set of tags and
attributes. This means that it has no DTD or schema.
It also means that the run time is very small. And

A couple quotes that got me giggling but disappointed:

I was rolling on the floor laughing reading that one. Mozilla sounds
just like Microsoft and their XAML. Chris Sells has on a couple
occasions said how great my criticism of MS-XAML is--it's exactly what
they're looking for, so that they can improve it. Please, don't insult
my intelligence!

Well, a friend of mine is helping to write a plug-in for IE right now,
that'll work with MyXaml. After we get the IE plug-in working, we'll take a
look at Firefox.

The credit for the website goes to a

rather enamored with it. How do you
think it compares/contrasts to Microsofts n-tier concept?
MVC and MyXaml seem to be a natural union,

Hi Gerald,
Thanks for the feedback! I personally feel that this is a difficult but
important issue to get my arms around. As I mentioned in the xaml-talk post
(great idea, BTW!), I think it's important to separate MS-XAML from what I
would call pure XAML.

Hi all,
Im looking for recommendations for an xml-based
scripting language to add to MyXaml. I came across XEXPR (http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/NOTE-xexpr-20001121/),
but it looks a bit clumsy. The idea here
is to define in XML some basic workflows (no, not the complex workflow server
