[Laszlo-user] Ajaxworld Keynote and webtop

[Jim Grandy]

Hi Can,

We are in fact working with the Laszlo Web top team to bring certain  
technologies over into OpenLaszlo itself. Much of this is driven by  
the desire to create generic APIs that may be used by webtop and  
other OpenLaszlo developers, but there's also the desire to  
contribute code to OpenLaszlo so everyone may benefit from that  
engineering.  Laszlo Webtop is a commercial product, so Laszlo  
Systems needs to be careful to preserve that value, but within that  
business framework we believe there is room for contributions back to  
OpenLaszlo. It's a little early to say exactly what will migrate, so  
stay tuned.
