For the most part, open source makes the irrelevant. Not that we are going anywhere, but if we dropped off the face of the planet tomorrow, Cappuccino would go on. We already have a thriving community of contributors and users who rely on Cappuccino for their own businesses, many of whom are more than capable of continuing the frameworks development.
- papertiger 17y agoI don't think open source makes that consideration irrelevant. It is an important factor when choosing a framework. I would bet that most of the users and probably a good portion of the contributors are using a framework precisely because it saves them from spending the time to develop/maintain those features on their own. Cappuccino would go on, but one must acknowledge that it could certainly flounder without the solid direction, organization, and vision that brought it into the world in the first place.
