As Alex points out - it is possible and it is a *lot* of hard work.  That's 
what we did for Novell
Vibe, before the data api was available.  Even still, we utilized the OT code 
open from Google (to
avoid additional complexities/edge cases when we were federating with sandbox), 
which can be
compiled using GWT to JS that can then be loaded and used normally.

If I remember correctly, we dedicated a couple of resources over 1 yr to get 
where we are today. And
before the question comes up - at the moment there are a lot of hooks into 
infrastructure code that
we rely upon internally, and unfortunately it can not be open sourced at this 
time.
