Hi everyone,
I'm planning quite an ambitious project, a swing desktop app (based on
Netbeans Platform) which is supposed to offer Groupware functionality & DMS.
In particular the app will eventually include
* an email client
* a task module
* a calendar module
* manage binary files
* and whatever else I can think of and add it later
I have chosen Apache Sling as the backend because of its REST API, I
just didn't care for RMI access as I might need WAN access to the
backend so HTTP / REST should make this easier. Another thing why I
chose Sling is because of the OSGi based architecture, one of its tasks
will be to periodically pull in new email from IMAP / POP3 servers.
Now, to get started, with the client, I'll try to implement a JCR browser.
I know that I can query the Sling repository and get JSON back, is this
the most feasible format or should I rather try to get XML results?
