Hey,

Not at all! :) I admit I did play a bit of Devil's advocate with you, but in the end it's what I felt when using, huh, alternative (esoteric?) stuff. You have to be ready to solve, by yourself, any problem that will came up on the entire stack, from the compiler/interpreter/VM to all frameworks and who knows what, because things are WAY less tested and there's WAY less resources (people, time and money) involved (which means there are WAY more problems yet to be fixed).

"WAY less resources (people, time and money) involved (which means there are WAY more problems yet to be fixed)." Hum, that sounds like our community too...

At the time, I had not enough skills to face that. Dealing with why LISP environment was not playing along with the MySQL lib on the C/C++ world, etc, was frustrating and a good eye-opener. On the bright side, I had a very simple blog for some time hosted on my home's G4 running on LISP - coded by a friend. So technically, although I didn't write it, I used a LISP web application. :)

Anyway, do I see someone saying he'll do a presentation on Seaside on the next WOWODC? Because I definitely would be there.

Regards,

Miguel Arroz

Hi Miguel,

I apologize. You are on this list more than I am. I *know* you know your craft.

I was overly blunt in my words and crossed the line.

I'm sorry.
