I agree it is a greater support issue, but one that can easily be solved. There's not a lot of justifiable reason that AV and Firewalls are allowing your browser to go anywhere on the net and show you content, but not to an app server on your own computer. That's really silly, don't you think?

And then, how do you weigh the benefits against that minor problem when you don't even know what the benefits are yet?

I can't prove to you this is a good thing without discussing product plans that are simply not to be discussed in a public forum yet. However, there will be significant benefit to a more distributed architecture for content management. Right now, we're just trying to get basic file listing and searching within the same machine. This is not an architectural problem - it's just a misconfiguration.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
