Salesforce, Apex, Adobe
Salesforce, Apex, Adobe: At the bit Salesforce conference they announced a new programming language, with backing from Adobe and others. "'This is the most important announcement Salesforce.com has ever made,' Marc Benioff, Salesforce chairman and CEO, told those attending its annual user conference." I tried to get more info yesterday, but there isn't much yet... this was the announcement of a multi-company initiative, but there won't be solid deliverables for awhile yet. The scope is different from other Adobe technologies... Apex is for delivery to a Salesforce server, rather than to the general web audience, or a particular intranet's HTTP server. Salesforce already has initiatives with Flash, Breeze, Acrobat and so on... good possibilities here, but it will be in the Salesforce audience base, not in the general web audience, from what I see. But it's still early days, and will likely take awhile for functional details to emerge.
