It is daft and irritating and I'll bet a pint that Tim had nothing to do with it. I made some t-shirts[^] to commemorate the moment (I am going to the conference that is being targeted by the letter. It is just down the road and I've met the IT@Cork lads before.) regards, Paul Watson Ireland FeedHenry needs you

Ah, well. Guess we'll just have to call it Web++ from now on, or maybe Web#. Michael CP Blog [^] Development Blog [^]

Soon, people would say Atlas when they mean Ajax.

Does that mean you don't think Atlas would succeed?

Oh it is OK for those doing ASP.NET websites as the client-server integration and controls are nifty but it is too heavy and overengineered for other backends. Dojo or Prototype are a lot better for that. Atlas also needs to get away from the whole "look how easy it is, drag and drop" tutorials. No web-dev with an ounce of professionalism uses drag-and-drop to code their sites. Just like you don't use D&D for your C++ apps. regards, Paul Watson Ireland FeedHenry needs you

Thanks. I don't really know much about Atlas or Ajax - that's why I asked. I didn't realize Atlas was a heavy framework. Regards, Nish
