How longer do you need to wait. UIML is more than three years old and isn't going anywhere. No book are forthcoming. No engines and so on. It's pratically dead already. > while UIML is built on a solid > basis of HCI research > with a sound specification. Have you used UIML for any of your applications? Can you show me some links of live UIML apps?

UIML is so abstract, you can use it for anything and claim that it's superior. All you have to do, is fill in the details. > The time of UIML may have not yet come, however, it > just won't hurt > reading the UIML specification to get a faint idea > of what else waits > there to be considered... Again UIML is years old and a case-study of how *not* to do it. Just using XML isn't enough. - Gerald ______________________________________________________________________ Post your ad for free now! http://personals.yahoo.ca |
