Dear Smalltalkers,
Few months ago I started a comparison of Aida, Seaside and Iliad web frameworks, with initial goal to check the strengths and weaknesses of Aida to draw a direction for future Aida development. But later I came to idea (and was encouraged also by Stef and others) to improve it and make this comparison public, therefore for all of you. I then invited few Iliad and Seaside guys to help balance the comparison, but unfortunately Seasiders were not willing to join, with their stated reason that spreadsheet of comparative features is not the best way to do such comparison. My answer is that a form of spreadsheet is a simplest start of such comparison. This feature list and check marks can be later a foundation for some more advanced comparison. We need to start from somewhere and such checkmarked spreadsheet is easiest to achieve in a shortest time. So, now I'm inviting all of you to take a look at this Google Docs spreadsheet and comment it. This way we will come at least one step closer to so needed comparison: https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Atnb1W9vuq9ndGRTUFIzT3VON0lTQ3JxdlZYTUxhOFE&hl=en&authkey=CJva7-8L&pli=1#gid=0 Best regards Janko -- Janko Mivšek Aida/Web Smalltalk Web Application Server http://www.aidaweb.si _______________________________________________ vwnc mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/vwnc |

Thanks a lot boris. It is always interesting from a social engineering perspective to see what people think about you.
I was so fun and insulting me - what a high degree of respect and humor. So far may be you are even be reading and using open-source software (seaside for example for your information I spent 4 years on that book but it probably do not matter to you) and do not even feel guilty that you do not even reward people. And you see the most funny aspect of it is that we will not change and I even feel encouraged. You forget an important row: vision and another one on "really cool videos" https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/shownotes.php?release_id=4982 ;) For the action of Janko I support it even if I never programmed in Aida or Iliad. I will help to write a chapter on iliad and help another web frameworks too written in VisualAge (unbelievable not even in your Smalltalk). why (I could piss on them thinking that seaside is the only way) because you need diversity. You see when you are strong you are not afraid by competition and we are not even in competition with VW or VA. If you do not realize that we play another role (but a really important) in the ecosystem then read more and try to understand it. Have fun because not every day are bright.

Hey, Stephane, you are a feature! Features are good!
Though I must admit that I always thought that "single window" was a bug, not a feature. That is one of the things I have never really liked about Squeak/Pharo. i suppose that is the point of including it in the table.
The real point of this table is that tables make things look authoratative, but they can be biased. We all knew that. So, a more relevant post would be pointing out ways that the original table needed to be improved. Perhaps indicating missing rows, or rows that are not really important. I think the authors are trying to be fair, but we all see things from different points of view, so the more people who contribute, the more accurate it will be.
I'm not much of an expert on web frameworks, so the fact that the table looked good to me is not important. Real experts need to evaluate it. -Ralph

Hi boris
may be I reacted too much, probably :). But you can ask yourselves why this is easier to attack even for fun something than to build it and Janko is trying to build something and we should help him. Similarly with Pharo we are creating a space where people can create wealth. A question I always ask myself: would seaside exist without squeak being there at that time.

In my opinion, these types of comparisons reduce the community to "if
you're not a part of Cool(TM), you're part of the problem". This point of view is not productive in the long term. Without diversity, we're just inviting a single evolutionary Cool(TM) deficiency to wipe us out in a blink. Also, enough of "Cool(TM)": http://blogten.blogspot.com/2011/06/and-this-doesnt-just-apply-to-phones.html.

Well... not so much. Comparisons aren't always about better/worse - sometimes - and this effort could go that way - illustrate which tool is best for a particular task. None of the web frameworks compared in this effort are the universal answers to all web tasks, and some of them are better in than others in some areas. As well, some of them appeal to different people for different reasons, and comparisons help people make choices.
