I also used it at WOWODC this year for my presentation. The ERAuthExample uses it, but it's not really pretty (not much css). The main goals of the look are to have 100% validating markup, accessible markup, full localization, and to remain functional when javascript is off. I also simplify rules and markup in the view whenever possible. For example, look at my inspect page template. It's one template, but it handles inspect, edit, wizard pages and tab pages too. There's a lot of functionality packed into it. But at the same time it's less complex. It eliminates the need to use sectionsContents and tabSectionsContents RHSKeys and tab subtasks/pageConfigurations... Just give it a displayPropertyKeys in any of the three formats I covered in my presentation at WOWODC and it magically does the right thing. Even the component is easy to read. The component html is only 8 lines long. What it does not have is a lot of ajaxy stuff that the other looks like modern or diva might include. Should I want ajax, I'll typically design it as an add-on like the AjaxToolkit stuff in the support folder. It also has a really plain/half finished stylesheet. And since I'm the only one who uses/works on it, I don't have a lot of help when it comes to fixing my bugs (^_^) So it feels kinda like a half finished Death Star at times. It's fully operational, but there's still some really obvious gaping holes that I haven't had the time/manpower to complete. I've considered hiring someone to do a really nice stylesheet for it, but then I'd just totally rearrange something like the PageWrapper on a whim and break it all anyway (^^) Ramsey
