Martin,

XAP has been inexistence for two years and the team has worked hard to
get it to the point it is at today. As you know though the XAP project
has struggled to create a livable community of users and developers.
Without a community, it is hard to attract new developers to sustain
creation of additional features and releases.

We still use XAP as part of our Ajax offering and will do so until the
next release.  The bits can be integrated from any SVN and decisions
about what to do with the XAP project shouldn't be tied to Nexaweb's
corporate needs but rather the community, committers and Apache.

I will leave it up to the XAP committers about what to do with the XAP
project.  If anyone has a suggestion on what to do with XAP, respond to
the list.

Bob (Buffone)

Subject: Is XAP dead?

It appears that there has been no traffic or activity on XAP for quite
some
time.

Most recent messages, as far as I can determine:

xap-user:    19-Feb-2008
xap-dev:     06-May-2008
xap-commits: 03-Apr-2008

Should we consider XAP to be dead? Should it be withdrawn from
incubation?

Nexaweb folks: Is Nexaweb still using XAP in its products, or has that
been
supplanted by dojo.E now? Should we consider XAP to have been abandoned
by
Nexaweb?
