I have been working full-time (12 - 16 hr days 7 days a week) for the last year and a half on a Java-based RIA framework. I am just about to release a beta version of it, but I have run out of my original funding. I now have to make the decision as to whether or not to secure more funding. The problem is that because I haven't wanted to release the product until I felt it had met my own expectations, my product has had very little visibility so I don't know what the interest level will be in it. I have just put the nearly complete full-featured demo out on the web and I was wondering if you would take a few minutes to look at the demo and to fill out a quick 4 question survey as to your interest level in the product. I'm hoping that with enough feedback, I'll be able to make an informed decision as to the direction I should take. I hope you all will do me this favor, counting lost wages, I have close to $500k of my own money invested in this product. Even after a year and a half, I have not lost my original passion for it, and am very pleased with how it has turned out so far. I just didn't expect it to take this long. I'm trying not to sound too desperate, but I would really appreciate it if you took just 3 or 4 minutes to look at the demo. Hopefully you'll be glad you did. The demo site is http://www.galileoriaf.com/demos/explorer Thanks. I sincerely appreciate the time you've taken to read this post. M.
