and the ability to extend a basic form with xml "extensions".
Delphi is going to be available for the Linux operating system in mid 2000, and the word is that Delphi programs written for Windows will be portable to Linux without too much trouble. Getting InterMix onto Linux will substantially improve our visibility in the open source arena.
Join us in the development effort. Tell us what you're doing with it and we'll list it here.
In the spirit of fidonet, InterMix also targets a Windows 2000 user with dsl or a broadband cable hookup who wants to co-publish a globally shared catalog on the web. The database of ALL music. The database of ALL books. And inevitably, the database of ALL people. Such huge databases can only come about as a collaborative effort of tens of thousands of users, each collecting and making available their own portion of the database on their own InterMix system. This is doable.
InterMix -- INTERnet Metropolitan Information eXchange. Aka XimRetni, our very own word coined so the search engines will find exactly us.
InterMix is also known as XimRetni so the search engines will find us,
exactly.
