RE: [Dynapi-Help] Simple communication questions...

[Brian H. <bg...@ke...>]

Hey guys,

	ColdFusion MX and compiled Perl code via Activestate.. I love using
compiled Perl code, as it allows me to write CGI applications that do not
require my ISP to have perl and/or supporting modules. ColdFusion MX, is
great because it is easy, and supported on any major platform.

Not so simple afterall I guess.  :-)  Good thing we had this discussion, lot
of good things coming out of it.

You're going to need some server side scripting, right?  That may be true if
you're running on an IIS server with ASP with JScript support.  But for
Apache, you're going to need other languages like Perl, PHP, Java, TCL, C,
C++, etc.  I'll help where I can of course, and if there's any other's out
there by all means lend a hand.  :)

Any way we can adopt any of the work that was already done with the Pushlet
project, and just port it over to different languages?  Even if we just
started with the object model and designed our code after that, or
something.  Just not to reinvent the wheel if possible.
