Rodeo: 2 questions

[Jerry Daniels]

David,

Not sure if there was a Rodeo question or something in there, but I  
will try to clarify, etc.

Rodeo is not a hosting package. We host your LIST code and translate  
it into iPad web app pages. You don't get an ftp addess or anything  
like that, so, no it's not a standard On-Rev package.

I have mentioned On-Rev, etc because we like the technology and  
recommend it. We are also using it for Rodeo at this very moment, and  
we are in discussion with Kevin to throw more resources at it for our  
users, based on demand, of course.

I'm not sure I understand what you're going for here. You do or don't  
have a gazillion users and you need or don't need a beefy server  
solution.

You're heard: If you build it they will come?

There's a better one: If they come, you'll be able to build it.

Money. It's about the money. Get some money and you can do whatever  
you want. There's some great stuff out there.

Best,

Jerry Daniels
