Hi,
There has been silence from Critical Path about OpenLaszlo since they
acquired it except for a small update notice placed at the top of the
OpenLaszlo site (http://www.openlaszlo.org/). The OpenLaszlo community
has not been kept in the loop about any official plans about the future
of OpenLaszlo since CP took over. I have also not heard anything from
any current employee of Critical Path or the subgroup that officially
owns OpenLaszlo since they came over. Your guess about the future of
OpenLaszlo is as good as mine. Most of the activity on the OpenLaszlo
mailing list and OpenLaszlo forums has moved to stackoverflow.com under
the "OpenLaszlo" and "Lzx" tags. I think the main people who used to
respond to the mailing list now answer each others questions there.
There is also a community space if you want to ask a non-programming
related question, that would be the best place to ask probably:
