Yeah, I believe the original webtop server used Rhino. Not sure why that was scrapped in favor of 'Pure Java' - probably for performance. Rhino is no where near some of the more modern JS engines in terms of performance...

I thought Adam's initial wt work used Javascript on the server?

I liked this quote


"In these post-QBasic times, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript have become for every
ungainly, bespectacled troglodyte the gateway from social exile to deeper
social exile."

Interesting!  I'd love to be able to develop server-side code in
JavaScript.  I was just chatting with a friend (and OL developer) the other
day about being able to describe server-side behavior as part of LZX, and
have part of the application run on the server and part on the client.

So many possibilities!
