My uneducated, uninformed guess is that using this to replace JavaClient would be a lot of work. It might be interesting to try.

Call me an old-fogey that can't see what all these up-start kids are making all the noise about.

WebObjects' Java Client already gives you a rich client with:

1) All Java - no need to learn another language (or three) for the client 2) EOF (including EditingContext synchronization, RMI, etc) on the client-side, no need to mash together different frameworks 3) WebStart makes distributing and launching a real app as easy as opening a web page. 4) Direct To Java Client can give you a full UI without writing any code.

It's here _today_ and is easy to integrate with an existing WO project.

I guess I just don't see what the big deal is. Sure, you can build web pages that can work without the web. Do we need that? I'm not so sure.
