Right now it's purely business-BS. We're under some severe time restrictions. The diaclect I've come up with isn't so very insanely different than WDDX, really - it simply describes a header and body where the body may contain one or more recordsets. Record sets are defined generically, not domain specifically. I've built all of the required JavaScript code for this - but we've recently discovered that our off-shore contractor (who's left suddenly) did not create generic java objects for the dialect - instead every instance of its use was essentially one-off, non-portable code. Since he only did a little work on it, and we've got much, much more to go I was considering a change to allow for faster development (I assume having the WDDX java object could speed things up at this stage).
