Grease helps only if you're code is already written against Grease. Otherwise you'll first have to port to Grease. At which point you might just as well port to your target dialect. The same applies for other libraries such as SPort. Grease only covers a small subset of what applications usually need, it is mostly targeted at web applications. Grease for example does not cover sockets, files or XML.
Or is it simply the same effort as pushng this into VW where it would stand better guarantees..? both from a corporate plan/ support etc.
Grease should work on any dialect where Seaside 3 runs. Cheers Philippe
