Just my half-nybble. I really like this idea, im not sure i'd use "vendor" to describe it, more like "Group Developed/Release Party" But perhaps with more thought yes a full variant could be created and released and maintained and who knows what will happen from that point onward, thank you for the idea, you've given a lot of fuel to though here for me on this. Hmmm why would you say fewer people would be less interested in using it for their project base ? I would think if it is A) Stable, B) Supported fully and updated regularly. That people would willingly use it, especially if it didn't change to drastically from the original circle, that they are already familiar with. -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | FAQ: http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | | Archives: http://post.queensu.ca/listserv/wwwarch/circle.html | | Newbie List: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/circle-newbies/ | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
