[p2pu-webcraft] Apcelerator JS App Framework

[Pippa Buchanan]

Appcelerator's code itself is not openly licensed is it? Even though there's
a free version of it I'd still be inclined to not support a course using it
in SoW due to difficult end-user agreements and the output not being for the
Web.  It should be at P2PU though - will send a message to the organiser
explaining why it can't be run in Webcraft.

It's a pity though as I'm sure it would be a good way to introduce wannabe
phone app developers to HTML5 tech. Can we setup the School of
Webcraftishbutnotquite studies?
