Say “No” to Drags
Went to Debsig and had dinner with heaps of FOSS guys and girls last night - was awesome. Drank a really nice bottle of Red (with Pia and Ycros) and had to get a cab home.
SLUG committee AGM this friday - vote for me for Normal Committee Member and say No to Drags (Hello, Bruce!).
On a parting note I found this project while reading about XAML stuff on wikipedia
OpenLaszlo is an open source platform for creating zero-install web applications with the user interface capabilities of desktop client software.
OpenLaszlo programs are written in XML and JavaScript and transparently compiled to Flash and soon DHTML. The OpenLaszlo APIs provide animation, layout, data binding, server communication, and declarative UI. An OpenLaszlo application can be as short as a single source file, or factored into multiple files that define reusable classes and libraries.
OpenLaszlo is write once run everywhere. An OpenLaszlo application developed on one machine will run on all leading Web browsers on all leading desktop operating systems.

Frucking totally cool. Checkout the Example Application. No Flash required.
