Response to: how do you compare with "event bus" ?
Slide 49 of the Hop on Board the Swinging EventBus! presentation says: EventBus is perfect for updating client from server . So, I see XmlHttpRequest and the EventBus project related. Yes, I was specifically talking about the XmlHttpRequest class. The use of this class implies to follow an event-way. So does the "event bus" way of programming. I see a difference as the EventBus does not imply a specific transport layer, while you have choosen to micmic the html way of the web world. That the major difference I see between your approach and the "event bus" approach. Are you going to implement the XmlHttpRequest way on top of a more event-oriented approach a la EventBus ? Or you have just focusing on the quite common, so widely adopted html way ?
