I then found this post by Neville, the developer of Surfulater, which is quite relevant to the above point of view.

In addition, Neville provides some interesting background and insights into the new software development directions he’s taking.

Neville has very extensive programming experience in the ‘old world’ of desktop software, having also developed Ed for Windows http://www.getsoft.com/

I must say that I admire such people who, in the words of Alvin Toffler, are able to learn, unlearn and relearn. I can only wish Neville all the best in his endeavours, being confident that they will also be good for Surfulater’s client base in the long term.
