How is that client-server communication done? If the same protocol/method can be used from Javascript, then you could write webapp without relying on those frameworks, I suppose. Still though, I'm not sure I'd want to expose my little mini-webserver to the big bad web :). > Such an approach would only work for people whose machine is turned on all the > time and accessible from the internet, but it also has the advantage that you > are not required to hand over the contents of your cards to a central server.

Yeah, there is potential for a website (and I would use a web framework for that, simply because it makes so many things easier that are boring work otherwise) based around Mneosyne. Sort of like what Anki or Reviewing the Kanji provide, but based on Mnemosyne. You could even have people submit their logs for research if they agree.
