Suggestion to Antonio

[Otto]

Hello Antonio,
it is demotivating if one should develop “new UI Programming” applications if you always fall back into the discussions: PRO or CONS WINDOWS 8.
And it is a nonsense because only market will show.

As FiveMac and FiveLinux developers have an own section inside the forum I would beg you to open a section “new UI inspired programming” or whatever
we will call it to productively share our experiences with “new UI programming” style.
Touch.prg from the Fivewin samples is such a great source to start.

Best regards,
Otto

Good idea!

Dear Otto,

It is quite normal that we talk about Windows 8 as it means such important changes to the entire software industry. Lets not be afraid about exposing our ideas, thoughts, brain storming, etc. as we are adults and professionals so we can freely talk about it, respecting each others opinions

I am learning true Windows 8 WinRT GUI programming and I don't mind to open a section for it, but once we have interesting stuff to share. FWH Touch is just FWH programming, with the look of the new UI concepts but does not follow WinRT programming rules.

In fact we have already started quite interesting threads about Windows 8:

I am in the process to publish some first apps in the Windows Store Apps (I am in the final stage) and I will share how it has been once it is ready (hopefully!)

But it is good to discuss about pluses and minuses. I don't see this as demotivating at all!

IMHO we will probably get FiveRT section (a la FivePhone and FiveDroid) ...
