I had this quick conversation with John Hjelmstad today:
me: Hi
John: howdy
me: do you have a min or 2?
John: busy right now dealing with some personal matters, but will have
time in about 30 min
me: can you ping me back when you're all done?
John: k
me: ty
John: hey dan, got a few minutes in between stuff
me: cool
So we've had people ask us about using dojo in os gadgets
I think it's something that you guys may run into when/if you start really
pushing on the appdev gadget story
John: indeed
me: I'm going to be working on a patch to dojo to enhance the xhr module
to prefer the os impl instead of the existing one
was wondering if there are any jquery committers at google that could
mirror my efforts
John: I presume you found a conflict of some kind?
you know, I just might
One of my reports has contributed, though I'm not sure if he's got
committer access to the repr.
repo
me: well dojo xhr presumes to do all of the xhr itself... the osapi
impl has some quirks in how the proxy url is used (or rpc instead of xhr)
that make dojo unable to cope with it
John: that makes sense
me: I'm pretty sure jquery has the same issue
Just tossing this out there as an FYI about the problem and to let anyone
who has another favorite js lib (prototype, etc...) know so that they can
push the effort in that project.
