Thank you, Bill.
This is very interesting and your impressions are very much appreciated.
I'm curious if you considered Ext JS (http://extjs.com/) and if so
what your impressions were.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi Gert,
An initiative that I'm currently working on is aimed at replacing
the current Swing-based administrative interface with a web-based
alternative. You can read more about the planned features and see a
mockup here: http://fedora-commons.org/confluence/x/XoF9. The
technology selected for implementation is Adobe Flex, the code for
which is written in MXML and Actionscript. I wrote up some of my
thoughts as I was doing tool comparisons here: http://fedora-commons.org/confluence/x/HgJ2
if you're interested. In the end we decided to go with Flex
because it provides a powerful development environment which takes
care of cross-browser concerns and because Adobe's Flash player (on
which Flex applications run) is widely available.

Hi,
I have noticed that mxml is now in use in the development work. Can
some one elaborate on the considerations behind this choice, thank
you.
Best,
Gert
