It's probably early to talk about one project swallowing another :-)
I'm certainly not shy about looking for great ideas wherever they
are. And now that OpenInteract is out I hope to take a step back and
look at other environments for inspiration. (Building some services on
top of POE would be extremely cool, for starters.)

One of the things OpenInteract has going for it is that a company
(intes.net) uses it constantly and pays people to develop applications
for it. I'm finding how difficult it is to do more programming after
hours, even fun stuff like this.

This is getting rapidly OT. Moving this onto the -dev list is a good
idea.

Thanks,

Chris
