Silverlight, the Flash plugin AND the Java VM all are runtimes, and third party components - but the JavaVM takes time to start, still. The benefits that go with this cost are increased possibilities compared to Flex or Cumberlight (infinite actually) - I am willing to cope with VM loading time in my daily internet usage, yet I understand other users would not. All in all, the +trunk+ you suggest is ok for today BUT DEFINITELY NEEDS SOME UNDERSTANDING OF XML in addition. The rest is more about tomorrow, and tomorrow is coming quick in information science - so for myself, as it is a question of adding "fresher skills" to my core education and experience of software development, I will study all the things I have mentionned above to a degree, and try for myself those I consider the most interesting ones (Ajax, Flex and JavaFX). ..2 more cents in the bucket :) Loading...
