[REBOL] Rugby revival
From: maarten:vrijheid at: 14-Aug-2003 8:25
Hi,
I am working on a new Rugby on top of the Storm engine, and I got the
rexec layer working already (rugby was pretty modular, so I am mostly
scrapping old code that had to with the network). TCP based in stead of
http based as a side effect.
So you'll have a rexec url [ function parameters ] or a rexec/async url
[ function parameters ] call-back
On the server side you just have the serve funcion.
Later on I'll add get-rugby-service with stub generation and the secure
transport layer.
Some questions:
- How should the functions be named? You'll have rexec, sexec, serve and
get-rugby-service. Should they be changed?
- What other functionality should be present? I know that some people
want more fine-grained access control than IP numbers, but are there
other features you'd wish?
- I am planning to release all this under the GPL with the option to buy
a non-gpl license (including redistribution) in the $50-100 range. Given
that I've put a lot of my time in it that seems reasonable to me, but
what do you think?
If you want a preview of the current alpha, let me know privately and
I'll send it to you one of these days.
