Re: [microsound] announcement != marketing



Luckily, Pure Data has already been compiled for ARM processors in the
form of PDa.

Calling an 'announcement' 'marketing' is more of a tongue-in-cheek
jibe than a sincere accusation. Again though, marketing is defined in
one way(googleing 'define:marketing') as a "means to make a
communication about a product or service a purpose of which is to
encourage recipients of the communication to purchase or use the
product or service."

So If you're selling a CD, and distribute information regarding the
contents, price and how to purchase it... ;-)

A press kit is a marketing tool, from what I can tell. But what's
wrong with that? If you are in a business or non-profit and you don't
market your services/products, then success != likely.

but judging from the usual reductionist reactions on this list I
suppose it would look that way
and since the iPhone uses an ARM processor - and not a PPC - I would
venture a hunch that one would have to recompile anything for OS X to
get it to work on the iPhone version of OS X -- in other words you
won't be able to just drag a plain vanilla widget onto your iPhone
and expect it to work...
e.g., different OS services, different math (integer vs floating
point), different function calls, etc.
I'm having lunch with a friend of mine next week down at Apple (they
have a great cafeteria!) and will ask him for more details then...
