Greetings Chuck, Yeah, I might be in that category myself (despite the fact that I work for the U.S. Government.)
Also, I tend to treat WO-GWT from a RESTful stand point similar to Pascal¹s talk last year with Dojo + ERRest. I have been working on a hybrid, but have never had the funding. I can add that facet to my talk coming up at WOWODC with a few examples from my academic research, if that helps. I hear there are channels to get DoD persononell to work with non-government entities for common feature projects, but I am not privy to the details. That may be one business item to bring to the table at WOWODC. I can not speak for the government, but I can listen.
