Sorry, there might be some parallel discussion with Christian that you
are not aware of? Of course, it is very interesting to restart that
project, that is why we are discussing the possibilities for its
development and contribution.  :-)

As we recently posted here, it is planned to offer a much better way to
allow for user contributions to the framework. That was far from optimal
in the past. The work on setting up the relevant structures simply isn't
finished yet, so it was not an option for committing any new code or
docs of transformer project in the last few days.

Regarding your question and expectation on how the qooxdoo core
developers could do relevant development for the transformer
(particularly its build process): it depends. Right now we only know
Christian's rough idea he sent to us last Saturday. I expect the docs
you just committed will also help to get an idea how the whole project
is expected to work and where exactly you need help. We are just very
busy and focused to finish work on 0.7-alpha2 before the Easter holidays
and your initial input was too vague for any kind of commitment.

It is a very popular concept to offer an alternative model for creating
web interfaces, based on declarative markup (XML). Of course, the
current JavaScript-based programming model will continue to be in the
development focus of qooxdoo (at least on our side). 

We'll get into the proposed transformer concept in more detail asap and
I am sure it will become a great addition to the qooxdoo framework -
with a lot of community contribution, I hope ;-)
