Yes, I think that is the reason. So Shindig has this support for "default" view when request to render gadget does not contain information about which view need to be rendered.
AFAIK the spec does not specify what views should be the default one which I think it means should it interpreted by the container. The "default" view is not really one of the supported view names ( http://opensocial-resources.googlecode.com/svn/spec/2.0/Core-Gadget.xml#gadgets.views.ViewType). Maybe we should map "default" view to one the existing supported view such as HOME. - Henry On Mon, Aug 1, 2011 at 7:01 AM, Matthew G Marum <[email protected]> wrote: > I looked into this recently too as it was brought up by somebody on our > side that it was no longer rendering properly in Shindig 3.0.0.
