This is good to know. Since so much work has already been done, wouldn't it
be worth to create a meta bug with the aim to create a whole
"qooxdoo-node.js stack" of interoperable components in qooxdoo-contrib
(rather than in private vcs)? 

I think this should be a coordinated issue rather than lots of random
implementation attempts. It would certainly add a whole new dimension to the
question of a backend for qooxdoo:

- an extremely lightweight server that is easy to install without many
prerequisites (as long as you're not on Winodws)
- the ability to work in the same language and with the same class
architecture on the server and client
- a potential for unified backend architecture for demos  -- think of a
playground with a "client" and a "server" editor!!!
- finally a server-push/cometd-solution for qooxdoo that would integrate
naturally into the framework

I don't expect this to materialize any time soon, but I'd be thrilled if the
devs would look at this as a future priority. I'd certainly be happy to
contribute.

Christian

I am using nabble (which seems to have a hiccup at the moment - it is not
displaying my messages and I saw your message only on sf.net) which doesn't
have CC, sorry!
