+Welcome to Apache Wookie
+=========================
+Apache Wookie is a Java server application that allows you to upload and
deploy
+widgets for your applications; widgets can not only include all the usual
kinds
+of mini-applications, badges, and gadgets, but also fully-collaborative
applications
+such as chats, quizzes, and games.
+
+Wookie is based on the W3C Widgets specification, but widgets can also be
included
+that use extended APIs such as Google Wave Gadgets and OpenSocial.
+
+Administrators can upload Widgets packaged according to the W3C Widgets
specification,
+and makes these available to applications using a REST API. Applications
typically have
+a plugin that implements this REST API, and enables users to pick widgets from
a gallery
+of those available to add to their pages.
+
+There is a Connector Framework included in Wookie for many different
programming
+languages that simplifies the process of writing plugins.
+
+Incubation Disclaimer
+=====================
+Apache Wookie is an effort undergoing incubation at the Apache Software
+Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator PMC.
+
+Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review
+indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process
+have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects.
+
+While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or
+stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully
+endorsed by the ASF.
+
+Getting Started
+===============
+For a source distribution, please read BUILDING for
+instructions on building Apache Wookie.
+
+Apache Wookie is made available in a standalone binary distribution,
+which means that once you download it, you should be able to run wookie
+'out of the box' without having to download and configure any other components
+ * Please read STANDALONE_BUILD_NOTES for this
+
+Additionally a WAR archive binary distribution is also made available for
Wookie.
+This is designed for users who wish to use/integrate Wookie into their
existing server
+environment - an existing Tomcat instance for example.
+ * Please read WAR_BUILD_NOTES for this
+
+You may also want to refer to RELEASE_NOTES for list of supported and
unsupported
+features.
+

+
+Known Issues
+============
+ * [WOOKIE-152] - There is a known issue when using Ant version 1.8.x to
build and run Wookie;
+ you should instead use version 1.7.1. To
check which version of ant you are using,
+ type ant -version.
+ * [WOOKIE-222] - There is a known issue when using Tomcat 7.* with
Wookie. Sometimes when a widget is actually
+ loaded, a browser alert box sometimes
appears informing the user of a "Session Error".
+ A workaround for this is to add the
following to the WEB-INF/web.xml file
+
+ <init-param>
+
<param-name>crossDomainSessionSecurity</param-name>
+ <param-value>false</param-value>
+ </init-param>
+
+ This is an issue for Tomcat 7.* only.
Previous versions do not appear to have this issue.
