If the protocol is TCP/IP and XML based there is no reason that VB, VBA and
.NET could not be supported easily without impacting the specification. This
could be in the form of a SOAP envelop that wraps the Embedlet XML packet or
direct Embedlet XML packet generation.
VB (6.0) and VBA are still the most widely used tools for enterprise process
automation and should not be ignored if the technology expects to garner
widespread acceptance.

James,
Another way to market the Embedlet Container idea might be to say that it is
a
Virtual Embedded System that can easily be interfaced to a wide number of
existing systems and can be placed into a wide range of platforms (from very
small PICs up through larger embedded controllers, PCs and even servers).
I find it very interesting that you are discussing the project with members
of
the PIC list and it is probably very telling that this specific person
wanted
to know if the technology was going to be compatible with VB.net right from
the
start.
And you know, he had an interesting idea. I guess as long as the PC he was
running on had a current version of the JRE (or maybe JDK) on it, something
like the JavaBeans-to-ActiveX bridge
(http://java.sun.com/products/javabeans/software/bridge/)
might allow him work with Embedlets?
I also noticed you used the original wide-fan-out document that was created
early on. I suppose that as soon as our strategy firms up over the next
couple
of weeks that I should start building the Embedlets website up a bit so we
can
direct people there if they want to learn more about what we are doing.
Ted
