Hi Jesse: Re: concat/proxy, that's surprising to me. We (@ Google) use both all the time, both in gadgets and as a standalone service (in the case of proxy).
In gadgets, resources are proxied in several ways: A. When the gadget gets rewritten via feature="content-rewrite", which can be requested explicitly or turned on by default. B. When gadgets.io.getProxyUrl(...) is called to generate a URL. C. When devs hard-code the URL (not recommended, but it happens). Concat is used much less often than Proxy, as it's really just a batched version of proxy and thus less generically applicable. It's most often used to consolidate external CSS resource requests into one HTTP request. --j On Mon, Nov 15, 2010 at 7:22 AM, Ciancetta, Jesse E. <jc...@mitre.org>wrote: > Hi, > > I noticed that it doesn't appear that people are using the concat and proxy > servlets in the wild and I was wondering if anyone might be able to provide > any insight into why that is.
