Hi guys,

hi michi,


Has anyone started yet an Open Source version of something similar
to Day's Content Explorer resp. Day's CRX?

If not, then I would get started myself by developing a Swing or Luxor
based version which is able to access local repos and remote repos
through WebDAV.


I would be interested to work on a web-based repository browser.

Despite I don't have too much time nowadays I feel I'm working on it at least indirectly ;). Let me explain...

I didn't think it thoroughly but both jcr-taglib and jcr-commands might help. The taglib would help to display the nodes either in a tree or in a flat manner. btw, I'd like to improve it by adding ajax support through DWR[1]. I think this improvement would help to build rich UIs for other purposes too. e.g. a jcr backed resourcebundle console come to my mind because we talked about it a few days ago.

And, independently of the MVC framework of your choice, the project jcr-commands might help too, I'm thinking of binding commands to menu items.

It seems that the tough part will be the fancy javascript but if the lines above have any sense we already have something :), WDYT?

kind regards,
edgar
