This list and the folks on it (speakers and non-speakers alike) are the only ones I can trust to keep the dying flame of WebDNA alive (sadly losing battle). Count me in on option 1 as the first initiative and 2, if push comes to shove. Terry Nair -----Original Message----- From: WebDNA Talk [mailto:WebDNA-Talk@talk.smithmicro.com] On Behalf Of Diane Blackmore (Cohesion) Sent: Thursday, April 17, 2008 08:16 To: WebDNA Talk Subject: Two options to consider Hi Since everyone's experiencing so much fun with WebDNA at the moment, and we're all on the same page with that we love WebDNA but not SmithMicro for how they've treated us and their software product, what does everyone think about either of the following options; 1. Presenting SM with a collective option to sell WebDNA (or even better, make open source). If we all have sufficient interest, it may be possible to get them to loosen their grip on their IP, or enter into some sort of JV. "If you don't ask, you don't get". OR; 2. Assembling a class action law suit against SM for fraudulently mis-representing their intentions with WebDNA to mislead customers (us) into thinking that our development platform had a future, thereby promoting sales of a product that they knew to be defunct. Any takers on either option?? I'll volunteer to head up either effort if I can be assured of some support - If no-one is keen, my war would be in vain if I won it just to be the last one on the planet using it. Let me know people....... Thanks, ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
