Revolution Linux Users

[revolution at knowledgeworks.plus.com]

Hi Glen

I'm a Rev user who uses Linux.  And my next project is going to be 
directed primarily at Linux, and will hopefully have a very wide catchment 
area (the app will be integrated with my own Linux distribution).  In 
fact, I don't see that Win32 or OS X will play any significant part in my 
business. 

My timescale for the completion of this project is 12-18 months, and I am 
keeping an eye on other technologies.  I'm quite concerned that there seem 
to be outstanding issues with Rev on Linux (there was a post in the last 
couple of weeks that listed manifold problems).  I'm just waiting for a 
clear few days so that I can test the bugs I have found in Rev with 
Metacard, and then I can give the Runrev people the fullest information. 
I'm not sure that Linux has received/is receiving enough attention.  Some 
of these bugs have been documented in this list quite some time ago, but 
do not appear to have been resolved.

As you may know, Metacard is the forefather of Rev, and it was aimed 
primarily at the Unix arena.  This gives Rev a great opportunity with the 
rising tide of Linux.  I'm currently writing some integration tools for an 
open source database project.  Many of the hard-core users have been 
bemoaning this past week at the lack of cross-platform, simple, end-user 
tools, and are suggesting teams to write such tools in c++.  Instead, I 
decided to implement them in Rev - I think I will have the entire suite 
finished in a couple of days.

I was wondering if there are many Revolution Linux developers around.

thanks,
