I agree entirely with Ali. Using Tcl is a decided
advantage
that OpenACS has over any other projects using, say, Java, Perl, or
Visual Basic.
Olivia, the most likely reason you haven't been deluged with responses
is that all this "Tcl vs. Java vs. Whatever" stuff was hashed out many
times, many years ago, and no one in the OpenACS community is
interested in the debate anymore. If you really want more info,
searching through the old postings here in the forums will probably
find it...
