Dear Trevor, This is an excellent suggestion. Anybody to write the little script to manage this db? (if no positive answer by two weeks, I will consider doing...
Many thanks for this, Ken and others. This is really extremely useful. Can I make very minor suggestions, if not too late: uRIP["homeURL"] changed into...
Hi Marielle and Trevor, The reserved IDs are very high numbers users generally don't use: most of them let the engine number images and practically it does not...
... Sorry, I misunderstood. My comment was about <company> prefixes. This was about images IDs? ... Well, the problem with statistics is that even the most...
Trevor, Marielle, and Eric, As I understand it, General Motors, Ford, Toyota, etc. only have a few thousand key patterns. So there is a good chance that over a...
... The fact that somebody else has a matching key doesn't prevent me from opening my car door, does it? The issue here is to evaluate if the shared ID causes...
... This has already been done - if you look in the Database area on the RevInterop yahoo group, you'll see two databases: 'NamespacePrefixes', where people...
... I can understand why everyone thinks this might be overkill but I still see it as a good idea. Revolution does not have a large developer community but it...
... Actually, thank YOU, Marielle... I forgot to make the spec official at the beginning of the new year, and you're post reminded me it needed to be done. ......
... Hey, Trevor... See my previous post; take a look at the ImageIDs databased on the Yahoo group and let me know what range you'd like to "book" offlist... ...
... Sorry Ken, I wasn't clear (though I still need to reserve my ids). What I was referring to above was a general range of ids that all applications could use...
... Oh, I understand now... (sorry) I'm fine with that as a guideline; some people may *want* to use up part of their reserved ranges for app-specific IDs...
Ken- ... I hate to keep carping on this, but I will until this sinks in... You're sending this message out to the private interop working group; those of us...
... Well, I guess you're right. I always saw the RevInterop group as a group for people who were interested in making their stuff work with other people's ...
Hi Ken, I agree. The new step in order to make RIP efficient and useful for all is 'communication' :-) BTW would you be kind enough to register 'sss' and 'ech'...
Dear Ken, Apologizes for not knowing about the Database yet. I have been away for a while and have a lot catching up to do. Many thanks for adding LXL to the...
Okay... I know you have all been working on this carefuly for months now. Agreed, let's avoid tiny refinements that would only delay official release and rapid...
... I beg to differ, Marielle. :-) I've just BEGUN to rehaul this promising standard for Rev Interop. :-)) http://pan.uqam.ca/xcards/pmwiki.php?n=RevLib.ECMI ...
... Well, Alain, I can hardly fault you for enthusiasm, but your obviously desire a stricter set of guidelines. The ECMI is not intended to be strinct; rather...
... The empire strikes back :) Just as a point of interest Alain - as we both shared a common interest in the RDF-XML standards approach a few years back -...
... No, in this case, you wouldn't actually register "lib4W", you'd register "4W" and put "lib" in front of it to indicate the library. I don't feel that ...
... OK :( Personally I think it is a US bias - you know rolling out the syllables - "gee", "uuuuTah" etc My Scottish taste is to use the Queens English, and...
... Admittedly, there are very rare circumstances where having the "u" is important for understanding if it is a custom property or a variable. Here's an...
... Yes - but :) These are minor, rare confusions. Also they could be solved in a spec by the well know geek spec Reverse Perverse Notation - that is why not...
David- ... There are standards and there are standards. Your convention that anything not starting with a library prefix is certainly usable. I use the leading...
David- ... ROTFL I suppose you could just write a function to take care of this: on AddAVowel pString put wordOffset("the", pString) into tPos if tPos > 0 then...
... The risk is actually worse if you don't have the library prefix OR and underscore... because any handlers in your libraries are open to be accessed by...
Hello Ken Ray and y'all, ... It caracterizes me, e.g. it's part of my spec, e.g. of myself, because it is a "required" attribute to be able to pull-off the...
