I think the reason QtQuick hasn't taken over this space, is that you still need to deal with C++ and cross-compiling. If QT had an option that made it clear you could develop and distribute in JavaScript only, that would be a hit.

Why didn't they make a video calling app and go after Skype? They're a phone company making a video centric, mobile app. Make it open and everywhere with easy no/low cost usage... oh, right, it's Verizon. They have to ow

Would a clear-text token, in addition to an encrypted connect token, allow servers to drop packets faster (since it wouldn't require decryption)? A clear token could be changed (cached, expired) however the back-end wanted, which would

If I make a menu with the same items that your restaurant offers, it shouldn't be an issue of copyright, even if I preserve the "semantic meaning" of the menu items (copying the recipes, for example.)

The templating is fast and safe but a pain to use. For example, an HTML Select needs a 3-value list: id,text,selected bool. You can't evaluate a comparison (if...) or call a function in the template. It's unpleasant.

As he said, we do have some experience with Class Breaks. Off the top of my head: Palm Pilots had a little button on the back to reset them. Chrome Books have a read-only OS/boot loader. Old software licensing dongles covered the chips
