#1 DateField was refactored into a DateField and CalendarField.
DateField accepts a date which must be keyed in by the user. It does not
support a calendar popup. CalendarField is based on JSCalendar and
hosted at Google code: http://code.google.com/p/click-calendar/
#2 Chart controls and examples was moved to its own Google project as
well: http://code.google.com/p/click-charts/
#3 The JavaScript function addLoadEvent (control.js) was rewritten under
Apache license.
#4 The RichTextArea example, based on TinyMCE, was replaced by YUI
editor. YUI is released under BSD so is compatible with Apache license.
-1 for YUI. If no other WYSIWYG can be found, than I think none should
be deployed (or put the tinymce on google code too).
Next task is to update all the distribution license headers. According
to this document [1] the license header should not contain any copyright
notices.
There is also the issue of controls contributed by Ahmed which might be
rewritten.
With these out of the way we can start thinking of releasing our first
Apache release. :)
I think a very important issue with these "external" packages/jars is
their version: I think their version number should be the *same* as the
click distribution that fits to.
It is just a pain in the a.. to match all the time the various component
versions with the correct framework (I'm speaking about other frameworks
:), but it looks like click is adopting the same bad strategy :( ).
Please fix this.
Thank you,
Demetrios.
