"Web 2.0 Pack, GlassFish v3 and other cool stuff" Session

In this session, we'll take a look at the ongoing work for the Sun Web Developer Pack (Sun WDP) for Web 2.0 development with RESTful Web Services using AJAX, JavaScript, ATOM, and more. This pack is available today from http://developers.sun.com/web/swdp/. This pack has both runtime and tooling technologies.

Project jMaki is a lightweight, client/server framework for creating JavaScript-centric Web 2.0 applications. It integrates a set of existing components from Dojo, Scriptaculous, Yahoo!, Google or others but also lets you write your own components. You can use jMaki with PHP, Portlets, Facelets, Java, and JavaScript. Project Phobos is a lightweight, scripting-friendly web application environment that runs on the Java platform. It's current focus is on JavaScript and provides a save/reload development paradigm. Its tooling includes a Phobos-in-the-IDE integration as well as a server-side JavaScript debugger.

The RESTful Web Services API is work in progress to provide a POJO, annotation-driven programing model with HTTP request dispatching in a REST architectural style. WADL (Web Application Description Language) provides a machine processable description of HTTP-based web applications somewhat the equivalent to WSDL in the SOAP Web Services paradigm. The ROME API is an open source set of ATOM/RSS Java utilities that make it easy to work in Java for both generation and consumption of most syndication formats.

GlassFish v3 has modularity as its main goal and should provide a great Web 2.0 modular foundation for Java, JavaScript, Ruby, PHP and more. GlassFish v3's module architecture, startup time, simplified administration and flexibility will be demoed and discussed by GlassFish architect Jerome Dochez and other experts.

Other surprisingly cool technologies and demos yet to be confirmed.
