Lately I’ve been writing a Web2.0 app and TBH I can see where folks are experiencing issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are omissions, glitches and bugs that need addressing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, I also wonder why Xojo hasnt dog fooded Web 2 with Feedback or some other app they use and rely on ? And that would show them the issues developers are facing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It should be possible and if its not maybe that says exactly how ready Web 2 is ? It certainly says something about its readiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
