XDC on live support

I think that falls into the “we’ll fix that later” category
We all know how often you actually get around to that
:stuck_out_tongue:

I still don’t get it where Xojo’s competitive advantage is. It’s ‘x-platform’ approach is highly fragmented.
And with the XAML discussion about if and how this could be used for other target platforms than Windows makes me think that Xojo’s layer architecture has an issue that makes the x-platform approach challenging.

Thanks. I tried. Some days I miss the Xojo blog and then I realize I’m not using Xojo any more… I am blogging about being on the road living in an RV (and other various topics) at www.bkeeneybriefs.substack.com

Yep… same thought… and in these 30 are several MVPs and employees. Back in 2015 MBS Conference in London where we’ve met, there were more…

It’s funny to me that the XDC videos are now free and being released soon after asking for that years ago, but now I don’t care.

The first presentations are on YouTube:

https://forum.xojo.com/t/xdc-2023-multiplatform-madness-paul-lefebvre/75503

One video features the presenter’s blockhead as a cover picture, the other one shows the subject. Can you tell which one is a genius?

soon through the multiplatform one and there really isnt anything “new”
its a rehash of all the problems we all mostly know all too well about building Multiplatform solutions with xojo & whats available

Since it was just 7 months since the developer retreat then why have XDC at all this year? They could have done all this online and saved a boatload of money and probably had more attendance.

it is an integral part of any socio-educational concept that one learns only through repetition. So let us repeat loud and clear together:

a bug is a bug.
two bugs are two bugs

:slight_smile:

Someone needed an overseas vacation excuse ?
I dunno ?

I think Paul said he brought his daughter along in his presentation video
Lord knows if anyone else brought spouses

two wrongs dont make a right
but three lefts do

I see the problem… the url without the www goes to the correct place… the same one with www goes to “safari can’t open page”

I think a few people has the wives with them

There is a history of members encouraging Xojo’s management to listen to the community. Just one example:
https://forum.xojo.com/t/doing-xojos-job-with-re-verifying-bugs-in-new-feedback/67160/74
Until recently, Xojo management didn’t care at all. Now that they started to accept certain facts, let’s see how far they can get.

yikes. The xmlcontainer is…um…special.

This reminds me of the initial Cocoa transition that was thrown away. I see no one wanting to use this.

I wonder if that’s related to lost sales?
