Any time frame for this?
I've played around with RIM tonight and can't get it going
:(. It complains it can't connect to the name lookup server
on my web server even though I can reach it via my browser.
There's at least one minor bug with RIM - if there is only
one name in rim-users.r file, then the name is displayed
vertically.
The problem I see with Rugby is that one is running a
persistent process which is rather difficult on a distant
web server. I tried running another persistent service like
that and it kept dying on me without any clues :(
Perhaps I should try converting lookup.r into a SOAP service
... currently it uses 'read rather than 'post, and I'm
worried about ISP caching, and stymied by lack of error
messages.
