I'm really looking forward to this session as you might guess. To be truly useful for the stated purpose of "converting a Notes application into a Rich Internet Application", you need to take a real, if simple, Notes application and make it a fully-baked web app with both toolkits. This means all user-facing elements (views, forms, dialogs) that are used in the Notes interface need to work webside. I say "user-facing" since I don't think it's critical to webify administrative bits like configuration, etc. Nice, but secondary.

The end result doesn't have to be fancy or highly advanced. Indeed, I think the really advanced stuff should be secondary, and could be mentioned in passing and included in the sample download. My concern here is enabling your average Notes client developer with minimal web experience to succeed in taking a Notes app to the web, even if that initial effort is relatively simple. The advanced stuff can be built on that initial success.

If you're looking for a sample Notes app to use for the demo, I would of course recommend SuperNTF. There are quite a few folks using it now so I think you'd get some good uptake of your example code from those users. And of course it makes the SuperNTF framework much more useful in general.

A few additional thoughts:

- It would be nice if you could enable partial refreshes for the field setting "refresh fields on keyword change"

- type ahead is always good when entering field values

Happy to give you both a personal orientation of SuperNTF if you like. Good luck!

The scenario I have in mind is an application that is doing alright as an web app. It has already some basic JavaScript functionality. The application . So what is the approach to use one of the frameworks. Rip and replace all existing JavaScript code? What about the html layout and CSS?]]>
