Perfect!

I will now ask on the Struts list if there are some people interested

Thanks!

>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Loading of external resources can be done eagerly if the API
>> user
>>>>>>>> wish
>>>>>>>>>>    so.
>>>>>>>>>>    3.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    The framework does not own the whole page. Meaning that an
>>>>>>>> application
>>>>>>>>>>    created with the framework can be used in an already created
>>>> page.
>>>>>>>>> This
>>>>>>>>>>    allows API developer to use the framework only for very

>>>>>>>>>>    like for example a dynamic table, while at the same time using

>>>>>>>>> web
>>>>>>>>>>    framework like struts for the other sections of the

>>>>>>>>>>    4.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Although a whole application can be created using pure java,
>> the
>>>>>>>>>>    framework should be able to integrate templates.
>>>>>>>>>>    5.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    By default, there should be 100% separation of logic and
>>>>>>>> presentation.
>>>>>>>>>>    Meaning that the API user should be able to take an html
>>>> template,
>>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>>>>>    dynamise it without needing to add any modification in the
>>>>>> template.
>>>>>>>>>>    6.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    On the other hand, if an API user is more script centric, he is
>>>>>> able
>>>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>>>>>    write groovy template, jstl templates or any other template
>>>> engine.
>>>>>>>>>>    7.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    The API user should be able to easily use any template engine
>> he
>>>>>>>>> wishes
>>>>>>>>>>    easily and naturally.
>>>>>>>>>>    8.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Event model is in 3 phase. Client-> server->back to client. API
>>>>>> user
>>>>>>>>>>    should be able to write events in java that starts executing on
>>>> the
>>>>>>>>>>    browser, then goes on the server if he wishes, then continue
>>>>>>>>> executing on
>>>>>>>>>>    the browser. e.g. We should be able to add an event on a button
>>>>>> that
>>>>>>>>> starts
>>>>>>>>>>    by executing some javascript codes, then take some parameters
>> and
>>>>>>>>> execute
>>>>>>>>>>    codes on the server, then continue back with some parameter
>> from
>>>>>> the
>>>>>>>>> server
>>>>>>>>>>    to execute some more javascript codes on the client. This
>>>> technique
>>>>>>>>> if used
>>>>>>>>>>    skillfully helps to create very smooth application that
>>>> constantly
>>>>>>>>>>    communicates with the server without any flicker
>>>>>>>>>>    9.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Support for websocket when the browser supports it.
>>>>>>>>>>    10.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Support for HTML5
>>>>>>>>>>    11.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Same API to write SVG applications.
>>>>>>>>>>    12.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Same API to write html5 canva application.
>>>>>>>>>>    13.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Support for browser back button
>>>>>>>>>>    14.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Crawlable by google crawler
>>>>>>>>>>    15.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Ultimately, the framework will come with a very rich set of
>>>>>>>> re-usable
>>>>>>>>>>    components
>>>>>>>>>>    16.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Handle browser quirks
>>>>>>>>>>    17.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>>    Built in validation
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> Background
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> The initial development of castafiore framework started back
>> 3years
>>>>>> ago
>>>>>>>>> by
>>>>>>>>>> Kureem Rossaye. Later it was mature enough to be used in
>>>> production. A
>>>>>>>>>> whole web based platform was created. It consists of applications
>>>> like
>>>>>>>>>> Inventory system, CMS, DMS, account system, organization
>> management
>>>>>>>>> system
>>>>>>>>>> and also an advanced WYSIWYG online application builder. Many
>>>> websites
>>>>>>>>>> ranging from simple catalog website to advanced e-commerce website
>>>>>> were
>>>>>>>>>> also created using the framework.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> Now I wish to donate this framework to the ASF in the hope to
>> build
>>>> a
>>>>>>>>>> community and see it strive
>>>>>>>>>> Rationale
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> While there exists many web frameworks, there are very few that
>>>>>> address
>>>>>>>>> all
>>>>>>>>>> the requirements at the same time. There is a need for a web
>>>>>>>> applications
>>>>>>>>>> that at the same time can free user from javascript, html and css
>>>> and
>>>>>>>> at
>>>>>>>>>> the same time easily integrate them when needed. There is also the
>>>>>> need
>>>>>>>>> for
>>>>>>>>>> a web framework that at the same time can be server centric and
>>>> client
>>>>>>>>>> centric. For example, the front-end of a web site should be made
>>>>>> client
>>>>>>>>>> centric and the back end server centric. While the whole
>> application
>>>>>>>> can
>>>>>>>>> be
>>>>>>>>>> written in java, the web framework allows to create a whole
>>>>>> application
>>>>>>>>>> using traditional methods like html css javascript and page
>> oriented
>>>>>>>>>> framework like struts or spring mvc and at the same time implement
>>>>>> only
>>>>>>>>>> very specific parts using the framework.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> Today many javascript library providers and making their libraries
>>>>>>>>>> “java-able”. e.g. SmartGWT or extjs
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> They are using GWT for this purpose. Writing custom components
>> with
>>>>>> GWT
>>>>>>>>> can
>>>>>>>>>> be extremely complex, error prone, difficult to debug and
>> stabilize.
>>>>>>>> Not
>>>>>>>>>> mentioning the compilation nightmare. And GWT is exclusively
>> client
>>>>>>>>>> centric. Connection with the server is done exclusively via web
>>>>>>>> services.
>>>>>>>>>> On the other hand, castafiore framework helps to make javascript
>>>>>>>>> libraries
>>>>>>>>>> “java-able” very easily. It is easy to debug and stabilize
>>>> components
>>>>>>>>> since
>>>>>>>>>> there is no such thing as compiler to generate javascript.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> The framework is built upon jquery. Indeed jquery is an excellent
>>>>>>>>>> javascript library. The framework basically acts as a thin layer
>>>> over
>>>>>>>>>> jquery. The result is a very simple and intuitive api which helps
>> to
>>>>>>>>> write
>>>>>>>>>> highly dynamic applications with lesser code. Just like jquery.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> The 3 phase event model helps to bring the server very close to
>> the
>>>>>>>>>> browser. Meaning that with the same API, it is easy to interact
>> with
>>>>>>>> the
>>>>>>>>>> browser and interact with the server. This helps to create very
>>>> smooth
>>>>>>>>>> running applications and at the same time interacting with the
>>>> server
>>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>>>>> progressively render new components.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> Thanks to the framework we will be able to harness the new HTML 5
>>>> api
>>>>>>>>> like
>>>>>>>>>> websocket, workers, storage system, canvas and others using pure
>>>> java.
>>>>>>>>> This
>>>>>>>>>> is pretty exciting.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> And hopefully, thanks to the ease at which we can integrate js
>>>>>>>> libraries
>>>>>>>>> as
>>>>>>>>>> a castafiore components, we will be able to use already mature js
>>>>>>>>> libraries
>>>>>>>>>> in our java codes and interact with the server easily
>>>>>>>>>> Current Status
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> The rendering engine of the framework is completed and is being
>> used
>>>>>> in
>>>>>>>>>> production. A large set of components are also being used. The
>>>>>> javadocs
>>>>>>>>> and
>>>>>>>>>> documentations are 90% completed. However there are many
>> components
>>>>>>>> that
>>>>>>>>>> need to be stabilized and of course, there is the need to create
>>>> more
>>>>>>>>>> interesting, useful and sexy components for the pleasure of every
>>>>>>>>>> programmer.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> We need to create a good set of demo and sample codes
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> There is also a need to create a website where contributors can
>>>>>> publish
>>>>>>>>>> their custom components together with their license and demo
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> I intend to donate the WYSIWYG application builder to the ASF and
>>>> host
>>>>>>>> it
>>>>>>>>>> online. This will be used as a sandbox or even can be used to
>> create
>>>>>>>>> custom
>>>>>>>>>> components and publish them online itself, without the need to
>>>>>> download
>>>>>>>>> or
>>>>>>>>>> install anything. I believe that this will help javascript library
>>>>>>>>> authors
>>>>>>>>>> to make their libraries “java-able”. To attain this objective, we
>>>> need
>>>>>>>> to
>>>>>>>>>> stabilize and increase security level on the application.
>>>>>>>>>>  Meritocracy
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> By submitting this incubator proposal, we’re expressing our intent

>>>>>>>>> build
>>>>>>>>>> a diverse developer community around Castafiore that will conduct

>>>>>> to
>>>>>>>>>> help those interested to get started with the project.
>>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>> Every aspect of the framework will be heavily documented to give

>>>>>>>>>> Furthermore, the framework is being used in production in my
