Hello Listusers!

I just wanted to let you know that the samba team (esp. Deryck Hodge <deryck(-at-)samba.org>) has done some efforts to use qooxdoo as a base for the samba 4 web management interface. Please read here:

and here:

They eventualy seem to tend to drop qooxdoo. Here some cite from Deryck Hodge <deryck(-at-)samba.org>:

The problem with qooxdoo, at least for our purposes, is that it doesn't play well with other Javascript or CSS. If you build an app with qooxdoo, everything on the page has to pass through a QxWidget and cross-browser style fixes are virtually impossible using the QxWidget.set(CSS_SELECTOR=VALUE) construction. The other JS toolkits I've looked at do the same type of thing.

Maybe some of the qooxdoo developers want to encourage the samba team with good arguments why qooxdoo should be used?

They seem to have the impression that it needs to have style fixes of the different widgets in qooxdoo. But qooxdoo is designed to be browser independent by itself.

It would be great to have qooxdoo as the base of the next samba generation web interface because of the huge user base.

Best regards.
