Hi All, As Maxim requested I have looked at both Google Closure and KineticJS.
*Google Closure * *Kinectic JS, RaphaelJS* Well maintained Well maintained Good Tutorials, Support Good Tutorials, Support Feature Full, Can Create Complete Uis like GMail Specific for tasks like Drawing, Animations. Facilitate enough features for that. Hard to learn,manage Easy to learn,mange As Maxim highlighted, there is no specific reason for me to leave Closure behind. But in Andrey's whiteboard we have lot of features than current OM WB. Thus what we can do is, - We can customize it to match with current WB - we can improve WB to have all these functionality in Andrey's whiteboard. I need comments for that choice. I think we have to use a separate synchronization logic with Wickets other than the web socket synchronization. Also if Andrey's whiteboard is matured enough for use in OM, I can start the work of creating a Wicket Module for that a we planned in the GSOC proposal. Thanks!
