While that's certainly possible with Dabo, it would take a bit of
work, for two main reasons:
1) The UI part of the framework is the most complex part of it.
Getting code that works with a desktop UI and a web UI
interchangeably is the Holy Grail of application development. IOW, no
one's there yet.
2) The Dabo business object is stateful, and for a web app, you need
a way to work with bizobjs (and hence their data) in a stateless way.
I have ideas on how to do that, but until we get the time to focus on
the web UI part of things, I don't expect to be spending time on
this. (Actually, I'm waiting for a paying client to request this, so
that I don't feel guilty spending time on it!)
I'm also excited about the promise of Adobe Flex, and hope that it
matures into something that is strongly supported both in browsers on
the client end, and in Python on the developer end.
