Re: [Pythoncard-users] Pushing for Pythoncard 1.0

[Teuvo E. <te...@gm...>]

Hi John,

You wrote "Seems to have very little interest in this"....

The lack of responses, activity in this list might not mean there would not
be interest.
At least for me the case is, I'll use the new things (you've implemented) in
PythonCard if I have a need for them (and they're easily
available/findable). It's certainly good to know they are there! But I
personally am too busy right now to start evaluating them just out of
curiosity.

I think there are two ways of making sure the interest exists, as much it
can, in addition to this mailing list:

1) The demo applications pythoncard has are excellent way to sell the tool,
if you have the energy, perhaps you could add your new stuff there too?

2) Documentation, as in component specs in:
http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net/framework/components.html or/and as in an
article in 'getting started' chapter in
http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net/documentation.html

You're doing a good Job John!
