I can't believe I wrote that. And posted it. The entire thread has been about the subject "SproutCore--over 20000 lines of new code!" and the code samples taken from Sproutcore.

There have been numerous errors and shortcomings in SproutCore pointed out, but for you the "bad" is still Mr Smith? Andrew Poulos

Because ISTM that a basic -at the very least- understanding of whatever you're talking about is always a good thing to have before criticizing. For example, had you known beforehand that sproutcore was about emulating OSX's Cocoa MVC model and basic framework's functionality (and no, nothing to do with .NET), you might have guessed better -given the caliber of the project- that to achieve that it takes -necessarily- more than a few of lines of JS. Then maybe, as a second thought, you could have said e.g. that -in your opinion- the web is not ready for such things yet (I would not agree), instead of blindly ditching something that you don't even know what is. IOW, you and the Smith ought to think before you talk. -- Jorge.
