That's my point, exactly.

Let the web stuff happen on the web, with web tools. For those of us who 
find web functions useful in our Rev applications, altBrowser in Rev 
2.7.5 should do the trick. For those who find xtalk useful for web 
productions, jscard from Creysoft looks like the answer.

What programming or production problem would be solved by morphing Rev 
into Perl-PHP-Ruby-on-rails-JavaScript-Ajax-Curl-Python-CSS-Apache? What 
would be the gain?
