In that cross-site mashup, one needs a facility to store requested callbacks so it can cancel the no-response callback after certain time lapsed and identify the callback actually coming from its request. This may require a facility more sophisticated than just a HashMap of callbacks as shown in GWT StockWatcher. I wonder if GWT Reslet client has that facility in place?. > > > Same as the server to make sure that the request comes from legitimate > > clients? > > > Since the server exposes resources to the whole Web, I suppose you are > talking about the "authentication" topic.

When the server serves a resource, it identifies the request with a user profile and its unique token. If the user has not been authenticated, then guest Id with location may be in the user profile. When user is authenticated, the profile is changed accordingly. User second request and/or client state maintained at the browser always has the server token so the server know the client state, and if required can be directed to Authentication process. I wonder if Restlet and/or anyone has explored this area working with GAE. I am also exploring Google Wave where Wave robots are at the Web Server served by servlet urls. The web server uses Reslet for resource Request/Response to be integrated with Wave server. Any comment in this area is appreciated.
