[vtkusers] Activiz Future ?

[Jean-Hugues Royer]

Hi,

I guess we are not alone to use Activiz, wouldn't it possible to reach 
other users/customers using it and ask about their interest to fund this 
project ?

Personally we are fine with funding it with others and personally we are 
more interested in Activiz 5.10 than 6.0.

 From reading the mailing list and looking at the questions regarding 
Activiz I guess C# popularity seems to grow, and Activiz 5.8 is quite a 
very good product.

Regards.
