I like Don's proposal, and would prefer to keep to dojo's calendar, rich text editor etc.

To kind of answer my own question, I have a proposal: put the original date picker and rich text editor UI tags in a new OpenSymphony project titled something like "Struts Optional Components" or perhaps something more original. Anyways, the point would be to create an outside ASF project that: 1. Provides a home for excellent components that depend on LGPL Javascript libraries, a no-no for ASF 2. Shows how easy it is to create your own components and perhaps fosters a community, much like MyFaces Tomahawk Even if we keep Dojo, I think we'd be doing our Webwork users a disservice to try to get them to use these components instead. There are just a lot of features the WW ones have that the Dojo ones don't. Of course it doesn't hurt that the move would close a few of our tickets and get us that much closer to a stable release :) Don On 7/12/06, Don Brown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > We have two UI tags, datePicker and richTextEditor, which used to be > backed by Javascript libraries, but are now simple wrappers for their > respective Dojo widgets.
