Hi all,
In light of recent Microsoft surprising U-turn announcement [1] that in
Windows 8 it swithes to HTML5 (HTML5+CSS+JavaScript) instead of .NET+WPF
and Silverlight for desktop app development it is IMO a right time to
think about:
1. is this a clear signal that HTML5 for ALL apps, both desktop and the
web is inevitable?
2. is this a clear signal that we need to rebuild Morphic on top of
HTML+CSS, to leverage all Morphic advantages and come back
to bleeding edge again?
I think yes. What Squeak/Pharo/Cuis GUI masters say?
Best regards
Janko
