Hi List:
Does anyone know why Sophie is being ported to Java?
In
this page, they mention Astea Solutions and their contributed Java codebase...
"Sophie is currently being significantly revised and improved, thanks to a third grant from the Mellon Foundation in October, 2008 and to a Java codebase contributed by Astea Solutions, a company formed to design and develop proprietary and open source electronic publishing products. With this funding, Sophie is not only being rewritten in Java to enhance its stability, but is being transformed from its initial iteration as a powerful multimedia authoring too into a reading and authoring environment that incorporates the recent cultural shifts instigated by social networking and software."
I have not used Sophie myself, but was it unstable?
Thanks!
