Ok here I go.
Subject to PB's approval:
I propose opening up some OPEN SOURCE areas on this board to
launch PB and all of us to a new level.
(I beleive that all PB'ers are here because we just have to
know what's under the hood.)
In the closed thread a comment was made that PB is an excellent
complier product, and should remain focused as such.
I propose that an OPEN SOURCE group start on a OOP and GUI,
RAD that pumps out the needed MODULAR code to be included in the
main program to support ALL the API Stuff.
(Don't mistake this idea, some products are awsome IE: EZGUI and
the programmers need to eat, I want to focus on tools that we
can develop so we as a community and deliver the fastest,
tighest code in the world to OUR customers, at the least cost
to us. I,m 47 and I think I've spent more money on programming,
tools and utilitys than I've earned on my products.)
Next a group to revamp the Editor and especially allow plug-in's
for tracer/debuggers, GUI's and other tools under one editor
that utlimately calls the PB compilers. Again OPEN SOURCE.
Speaking for my self, I need a PB to BIN compiler to satisify my
screaming LINUX customers, especially CGI in BIN. (Please Bob)
The last group will produce a GUI front end PD/DLL OPEN SOURCE
code aimed at remote admin of Linux systems. I want to stay with M$
and windows, but I need to support many Linux / Unix systems.
Maybe this group can produce a link LIB for other OS's.
I have server space and a "TARGET" Linux system.
I'm done...
