The short answer that yes, it will some day or every little thing that the 89 can. Right now it can do most things as well as a bunch of other things the 89 can not.

Generation of the assemblies with reflection.emit is easy. It's the reversing of the interfaces back and forth. Code generation sucks, plus its not dynamic to each new extension you drop in and you have to have more then just the .NET runtime but the entire SDK. You would assume that the SDK would be there if they are using ASP.NET but not every time. :-)

a lot is different. the menus and navigation are nearly the same as always, but then a lot of other things underneath are faster, better, and produce better graphics with the new screens. a bunch of new features have been added as well. the ti-8x models are the same and will always be the same just for compatablitly sake, but keep an eye out for the new line...

part of the problem is that microsoft's api doesn't expose the useragent as something in the api.

thats a good question... one way would be via reflection into the inside the component to check to see if one my internal types exist. Its great but that would work without breaking ABI. I might be able to provide something else (maybe invoke something and getting a predicted variable back (like on init, the title tag will be "about:mozilla" until it chages pages unlike IE, which defaults to "about:blank").

I plan on writting a both an MWF control and a GTK# widget, however most of my attention is focused on MWF.

No timeline as of yet. I don't really even have a planned roadmap at this point. I really just know what has to be done and I'm doing it :-P When I get an alpha going, I should have an idea, but at this point I can't say.

I think the clipboard integration and the javascript access will be possible. DOM integration is going to be massive hurdle.

Wasn't me that took them. I just found them after hearing something happened. Someone said they blogged it with photos but all I could find was the photos on google cache so I snatched them before they disapeared for good.

in Zac Bowling’s Blog » Implementing UPnP on Zac Bowling's Blog
That is one idea I thought of myself. Its really not hard to do really, but raises many many different security concerns and wouldn't be anything you can't really get from dmz (unless you might be using ftp behind a nat and another person has http or something). You can also can and get your external ip and you can forward a port to an internal ip only from a single host (so you can share a open port with other people on your network if you know the ip of the person wanting to contact you).

in Don’t believe it.. on Zac Bowling's Blog
LOL, Mark. Thats one of the those talking points :-) I love those.. I don't know if you used it or maybe remembered it, or whatever, but its nearly word for word dude. I never had said my political party and I never will because I love the security of never having to have to tell anyone (however you may or may not be suprised to what political party I'm lean to). I live in Texas myself and grew up in Indiana very close to Chicago.

The deal with Corpous Christie is not as great as it sounds. The lower waged workers filed many a law suit against the city because the system didn't have the money to give them what they should of got but a former judge and someone who got a ton of money already got over $100,000 a year (and I know that because I was someone who used to live there).

Halliburton has recieved way to many benfits from this war and had some inside play in it. Bush and Chaney have had a long term interest in the reagion as it relates to their own personal income and Halliburton has been key in that. He is seen holding hands with the Prince of Saudia Arabia (not saying anything bad about it because I know it is a cultural thing) but that man is know for some of own international crimes and they may not equal that of saddam hussian, its just as bad.

But, WMDs is what sold this war and they weren't even mass killers as they thought, it turned out to be bullshit. At the same time North Korea is preparing for testing their brand new nukes but that sort of power is the kind we can nogitate with? Which is worse? WTF? Seriously...

Erik, I'm still working on it when I get the chance. I have a new windows desktop on the way from Dell so I'm going to start working on it again. Going to buckel down on gtk# on win32 big time now that GConf and ORBit has been ported :-)

in UPnP IDG for Linux on Zac Bowling's Blog
My research can help with that as well. Its really not to much different, but its supporting a really bad protocol even with IDG. Anyways, I shamefully own myself one of those microsoft a/v servers and have taken it apart, but I like the replayTV's better :-)

in UPnP IDG for Linux on Zac Bowling's Blog
Unfortunetly, no. I looked at Smoothwall Express a while back. Its a play on the old Intel generated code as well. The other part is that the client code can be far less sophisticated then the server side and reuse things like libxml and maybe parts of libsoup and such to get it done. It shouldn't be to difficult.

Funny part of the license FAQ is the statement:
'We believe it stands up to what developers demand of an "open" license.'

Well Microsoft bought the guy that worked on it. The 0.6 version wasn't all that free with the creative commons license ether. I'm not sure how Debian will take it.
