I believe the initial work the Fluid folks are doing is to write a
layout manager (client side javascript that manages item ordering
and movement) that deals with the column layout for mouse-enabled
DnD. Once that is done they will start working on parsing in those
JSON objects we generate so they can know where items can and can't
be moved in the layout.
Actually, the layout manager will rely on the JSON objects for its
understanding of what's where, so creating the layout manager
*includes* working on parsing the JSON objects.
Us getting started on the JSON side is a bit ahead of where the
client side of this work is right now but the general contract,
those two JSON objects, was pretty well vetted last week so we
should be safe doing the work and then just waiting for the client
side to catch up.
I'd say the two are comfortably parallel. We'll work on the layout
handler based on manually created test JSON objects representing test
mark-up, while you work on generating those objects.
