C9 Bytes: Don and Chris explain Oslo in 5 minutes

The Discussion

  Great love the idea!   I believe the direction we are going here versus msil and others.  I like the data driven direction path and improvements with declarative models.     A platform like OSLO has been a long time coming.  Do you think it could reduce dependecy on com objects?

  Hmm... still not very clear though as to how this whole "model is the app" principle will actually look in practice. I think we need more concrete scenarios. For example, we could try contrasting a service modelled and written with Service Factory (which is the more traditional model + code-gen type approach) vs. the same service built with Oslo (and perhaps Dublin backing that) . That could help give more traction to and a better understanding of Oslo's value.
