I'm not sure how this fits with M$ > proprietary plan however... On that note... they're bringing jQuery (OSS Javascript framework) into the ASP.NET paradigm UNALTERED! That's right--they've admitted that they can't do better than the jQuery folks, and they're going to adopt it AS-IS. That made me very excited... especially since I've recently fallen in love with jQuery, and I am forced to use ASP.NET at work (though, to the chagrin of this list, I will admit: I like the .NET framework. A lot). Anyway, just thought I'd put the idea out there that not every person at Microsoft follows the "find idea, FUBAR idea, repackage idea" mindset. :) Their ASP.NET/VS crew has actually been pretty forward-thinking as of late. *cough* ... but, you know... PHP rules, too, and junk. // Todd -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
