Re: [Freecats-Dev] Is there any Software Architect aboard?

[Dan Urist]

I'm not sure I really want to step into the middle of the whole language 
war, and I'm definitely not applying for the position of chief 
architect, but I do have some more-or-less working code...

I'm currently in the process of splitting out my project (OOxlate) into 
separate server and client rpm packages for linux (following some very 
helpful suggestions by Marc Prior). This is taking a bit longer than I 
expected, since I've never packaged software with RPM before. I expect 
to get at least the server piece out sometime this week (unless of 
course somebody hires me in the meantime :) ). The OOo client piece will 
 probably be another week to package.

I realize this doesn't help the folks who only run windows, but the code 
should run under windows if anyone is interested in trying to put 
together a windows package (not my area of expertise; I don't have a 
windows box to test on).

Hopefully at least the server will be useful to folks trying to write a 
client, since it's something to test against, even if it is written in 
perl :)
