Hi all,
let me explain the actual status of the Tobago development:
We have branched the development into the tobago-1.0.x branch and the
trunk which is the next major release.
The tobago-1.0.x branch is stable and basis of the actual releases. The
next release (1.0.21) will come up in the next days. This branch
contains bugfixes and some (smaller) new features.
You can see the changes of the next release here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&pid=12310273&fixfor=12313470
The trunk (1.1.x) is an area of many refactorings and implementation of
new features. But the status is still alpha. Here is a list of issues
for the next major release:
* Reimplementation of the layout management:
- make renderer more independent from the layout management.
- more flexible
- more type of layout managers
- better testability (unit tests)
- better support for browser-window resizing
* New tree implementation
* Better support for integrating 3rd party components
* Client side coordinates of action event on server side (mouse event,
click event)
* simplify css and javascript files
* support for many tabs
* improved sheet performance
* more support for other renderkits
and many internal refactorings (plan)
* Generating tag classes and components
* Enhanced tobago lifecyle with buildView layoutView (registerResource)
/ encodeView (renderResponse)
* UIPopup should be a subform
* UITab should be a naming container (which tab contains a component
with a Message)
* Z-Index Provider
* replace prototype with dojo
* replace commons-logging with slf4j
* Remove deprecated methods and classes
* public and internal packages(public api and internal api)
* remove some static classes
* improved TobagoResponseWriter for javascript (JSON)
* TabGroup should be an ActionSource
* TabChangeEvent should be an ActionEvent
* requiredMessage validatorMessage converterMessage for all
EditableValueHolder in Tobago

Hi All,
We are developing a web application with myfaces.
That's fine, JSF is the cool think. I worked with
Tobago, that comes with a great layout manager
and some cool widgets.
It is not my intention to overwhelm that nice
project but it seems to be dead. The development
that's totally wrong ...
I hope you are right, but i looks like (for me)
that the development activity slowed down.
2008 was a great year an i was lucky using this
wonderful component library.
Could you give us a short insight of the current
development ?
I switched to Richfaces and found it also useful
for me. What are the advantages or drawback
of one lib comparing the other?
Thanks

of new widgets seems not to proceed so you may
better look to other Taglibs like Richfaces, Icefaces.

This application needs proper navigation and UI .I have observed
Trinidad
has good navigation practices and other utilities.Tobago has some good
layouts but not good navigation practices.both these technologies have
featurs like PPR.
Trinidat looks a little bit old-fashioned to me, anyway there
seems to be only a little support for AJAX.
could some one plaese advice us which is the better technology and the
distinct features of these technologies.
Thanks,
Srikanth
