[Laszlo-dev] A Meta-IDE 4 Laszlo?

[Sebastian Wagner]

I agree. I read in the forums a long thread about the IDE
http://forum.openlaszlo.org/showthread.php?p=38753#poststop
Lets see what they their concept is for an IDE. Although I think I
would prefer to work in the Source-Code, but there is certainly need
for a graphic-builder to skin the components .. or other more design
focused work.
