CMP: On its way out?

[schporto]

Your missing the point
The point is I want a stand alone product.

Perhaps I am. Do you have an example of such a program? Personally I've never come across a program such as you describe.
It is my belief that such a program would be non-cross OS. Hence what I don't want to see.
But if you have a program that runs from a thumb drive on Windows, Mac and Linux, I'd be extremely interested in it.

Make your product stand alone, not dependent on other softwares (i.e. Java).

It uses java so its can be used across operating systems.

I want to be able to put it on my mini-drive (4GB)

I have 5.11.8 on my 512MB thumb drive with no problem

I don't want the need of a driver outside of your system or a requirement to be online.

Well, you don't need to be online to run the program. But as I said, java was chosen for cross-OS abilities.

Thanks Henry. I've passed this on to our web monkeys.

And our web monkeys have said that, starting with the next release, they'll have links to the release notes...the News section won't allow a full listing.

Guess I will be downloading a few things here in about 90 minutes.

CMP is still down... Plagued by disaster or mismanagement----doesn't really matter at this point. They just keep on showing us that they don't have the ability to run a high-quality company.

Did they knock you down at school and take your lunch money or something? You seem to have a serious hate-on for them.

They've no doubt experienced issues, but they also managed to produce some stuff that a lot of people have found useful and that probably wouldn't have seen the light of day otherwise. I don't see any point in hoping the horse is dead just so I can beat it.

Whats the point of this thread?

If CMP has issues suggest something positive or leave them to improve by themselves.

I hope they do well and thank them for what they've done. Ghoulish interest in their demise seems cruel & unkind.

Isn't that why the Internet was created?

Well, you don't need to be online to run the program. But as I said, java was chosen for cross-OS abilities.

You can also copy the entire Java JRE onto a thumb drive and run the program without it using your PCs Java by changing how PCGen launches. So the machine you run the thumb drive on doesn't even need Java.
