I have been listening to the jQuery podcasts (official and yayquery) and I am really excited about all the potential stuff that is to come in January. Of those many things I am extremely interested in the new developments regarding a mobile version of jQuery. As far as I understand, a mobile version of jQuery is likely going to become a reality by removing unnecessary logic (such as that related to a mouse) and adding features pertinent to mobile platforms (such as tap events). Being a primarily mobile developer and a real geek for anything JavaScript, I have to ask where the mobile version spec is coming together and how I, as a community member, can contribute? As you can tell by the title of this post, one feature I would love to help spec out is a JSON RPC implementation to extend the .ajax functionality in jQuery. Due to the sandbox limitations in conventional JavaScript, cross domain posting (practically the essence of any RPC) is only a pipe dream left for future ECMA specs. However, in the mobile realm (such as with Palm's new Mojo API and Nokia's WRT) there are no cross-domain limitations. As a result, doors are wide open to really cool possibilities in posting JSON commands and receiving JSON responses. With all this hype flying around about JavaScript servers (i.e. Node.js) I really think it is a novel and worthwhile idea to have client and server speak the same language and communicate using an intermediary that they both natively support. Can I get an amen?
