Then you talk about Valentina 2.
And more correct to use the name "V4REV".
XCMD - was used for v1.

Okay, I see, so you want to run engine of revolution on OS X server,
And use revolution language for CGI (like other people use e.g. PHP)

Yes I think it is okay now. If you have ideas how to improve - lets us know.

Transactions we start right after 2.5 release,
And they will be introduced in 3.0 like main new feature.
We already have develop draft of ideas how to implement them.

Well, I think this is question first of all to Revolution developers.

Lynn, Kevin, Mark, if needed lets do some chat to discuss this issue.
 
In fact I'd assume that engine itself use the same rules to work with
externals. I do not see any reason why REV engine without GUI part should
work with externals in any other way...

Kevin, Mark?
