TOP COLDFUSION LINKS AJAXWorld News Desk AJAX & RIA Journal Special: Results of OpenAjax Alliance's Browser Feature Wish List
AJAX community ranks vector graphics as top request
Jul. 17, 2008 05:45 AM
Article author Coach Wei speaking at a previous AJAXWorld RIA Conference 1. The Process
The OpenAjax Runtime initiative used a two phased process. A special wiki site http://www.openajax.org/runtime/wiki/Main_Page was set up to facilitate communication and collaboration. In Phase I, OpenAjax Alliance collected an initial list of feature requests. This is largely done by researching blogs, meetings with OpenAjax members and Ajax experts, and interviewing leading Ajax toolkits. The initial wish list was announced in April 2008 for community review and feedback. A group of industry experts were being actively approached for feedback (see Phase I Voting wiki page). Phase II started in May. The Alliance re-organized the feature lists based on Phase I results. Phase II wish list was put into voting in June. Voting was open to the general community. For each feature request, a voter can vote from 0 to 10 to indicate how strongly the voter feels the need for this request (10 being the most important). The voting
ended on July 13th 2008.
2. Feature List Summary A total of 55 features were written up by various people in community. These writeups typically cover areas such as what the feature is, background, why the feature is important, possible solutions/recommended approaches for this feature, references, etc. As a result of community feedback, some features are classified into “InActive”. For Phase II voting, there is a list of 37 active features. The current feature request list is: Security features
Client-server communications features
HTML5/W3C features
CSS features
Rendering/interaction/event handling features
Performance features
JavaScript features
Other features
By July 13,
when the voting closed, this initiative has turned out to be a bigger success than
expected. Given the amount of effort
required to read and understand the vast web technology landscape, and the
relatively limited time and resources available to the OpenAjax Alliance
Runtime participants, we were hoping for
50 or so people to vote, which would be meaningful to establish a rough idea
of what's most important to the community.
Voting results are available at:

some quick statistics:
