Re: [DIYbio] Genome Compiler

Hi Bryan, this Omri (CEO of Genome Compiler) - we use AIR only because of the cross-platform support. We're not in love with this platform and hope to move to HTML5 when it's mature enough.


Please do try our software - there much we plan to build and support our community (just gave a talk at bioC + supporting iGem)

Feel free to contact me at omri@genomecompiler.com if you have any feedback

Sounds sorta useless. The only reason you might choose Adobe Air is
because you were sold over the hype about protecting your machine
code, but that's not really true because, hell, we're biohackers. The
other possible reason is some claim about cross-platform support, but
there are tons of more biologist-friendly options for that (pyjs keeps
claiming to be one, but there are others). Smells fishy to me.
