“Jörg ist current checking out dotText. He very much likes the admin interface and says it's very cute. And not only that. I had a glimpse and I have to agree. I think it's fantastic that Scott and us are releasing such big chunks of public code for the same purpose at the same time, but there is no "vs.". I think .Text is cool.”
First, cute? hmm...maybe I will have to do something about this :)
But I do agree 100% with Clemens. There is no one vs. the other.
Clemens does go on to point out that one of the more notable differences is that current .Text uses a SQL backend while dasBlog uses a set of text files for data storage. The .Text data model actually uses an abstracted DataProvider, meaning it could support just about any datasource, with out changing a line of code in Framework, UI, or Web projects. A couple of people have mentioned creating Access or XML providers.
