There is way too much attitude here and everyone needs to tone it down. It's plain that this whole forum is focussed on iSilo and will tend to lean that way. However, I think that Alexander's initial review was open to correction, and he was looking to create discussion. There's no sense in escalating into a flame war. I use iSilo (mainly because I found it first), but I'm very interested in Plucker because I like to support open source projects. (And free is nice too.) Hacker, I don't think the initial review meant any disrespect toward your hard work, but simply reflected Alexanders empirical experience. I hope that everyone can relax a bit and bring it back to a more friendly discussion. Even a spirited debate is fine, but does every app vs. app discussion have to degenerate into sniping? I think that a healthy discussion of the merits of these two powerful pieces of software could be extremely useful to the community.
Hacker, I have to say that it is not at all clear on the plkr.org site that JPluck is separate from the rest of the plucker project. It looks like just one other component. Also, is the perl p****r available yet or is it still in production? I can't find it anywhere. I really like that Plucker is available on bittorrent, my favorite file trading utility.
And everyone else, just tone it down a notch, please?
