Hello, Dion Almaer posted a blog story titled "XAML4J: Jelly gets new life"
Dion writes: I was looking at some maven scripts and enjoying the Jelly noise in front of me, when I realised that Jelly could have some new life. There has been a bit of a reaction to take stuff from .NET and put it in Java. Taking the good stuff is a no-brainer, and I am glad that nothing like pride has stopped the Java community from doing this (e.g. annotations), and we then even have a chance to improve on what was already there. If we wait a little bit, people may be crying out for us to have XAML on our side of the fence, and we do have some of this (Lazlo etc), but how about we rename Jelly to XAML4J! ;) Source: http://www.almaer.com/blog/archives/000250.html What's your take on it? Do you think MS XAML is a Jelly clone and it's time for Jelly to get rebranded as XAML4J to get the attention it deserves? (As always please post your comments to xul-talk.) - Gerald PS: You can find Jelly online @ http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/jelly PPS: More than a year and a half ago I gave a talk that includes half a dozen Jelly slides. See the talk titled "Python and Jelly: Scripting Power for Java and XML: Do More With Less (Lines of Code)" online @ http://luxor-xul.sourceforge.net/talk/jug-feb-2003/slides.html ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
