This post is cross-posted to the Wookie and Rave in Context project
lists. Rave in Context is a short term project I am working. The goal
of that project is to create a set of usable and accessible widget
templates for common functionality such as login, result list search
and browse and data entry. The Rave part in the title is there because
our final deployment platform will be Rave (and yes, that means I have
to integrate Wookie and Rave).
I think Paul has also done some more work on that recently.
It would be nice to get some visibility into that rather than duplicate work.
I released a snapshot of the wookie java connector at the end of last
week in the apache snapshots repo. I have Rave using it now on my local
setup - but it doesn't do a great deal yet. TBH I'm stick kicking the
tyres just yet and trying to figure out how things should work.

My question to the Wookie list is "do you want to see this work in the
scratchpad area of Wookie rather than in it's current invisible home
at Rave in Context".
Yes!
:-)
I'll leave it for a few days for objections, but will state now that I
would love to integrate this work with Paul. I have deadlines and I'm
sure Paul does too. It would be good for us both to work in our own
scratchpad areas and try and converge whereever possible.
I'd be thrilled if people here wanted to help develop the code, but
I'm very happy to drive this forwards myself and welcome feedback and
suggestions along the way. I won't get any of that in the Rave in
Context project so I want to bring it here early.
I also went to an event run by a project called Widgat recently which is
looking at doing template-driven widget authoring:

Interesting, I just received an invite to another of their later
events later this year. I was planning on attending.
There seems to be some potential commonality here.
Exactly.
