I’ve been concerned a bit that it may appear as though Joe joining SitePen may carry with it the perception that the Dojo Foundation is an arm of SitePen in some way or that DWR will now need to become Dojo-centric. Luckily neither is the case, although reading assurances to that effect on this blog should be taken with a grain of salt. The Foundation has an open door for deserving projects which need a good legal umbrella and don’t want a lot of process or formality, and we’ve extended personal invitations to many non-Dojo-centric projects over the years to join (including direct competitors).The move to the Dojo Foundation is progressing, but will not be immediate. Along with the code itself, there are also a whole set of organization issues to consider:
DWR 2.0 has been out for 6 months or so. At the time, I swore that the next release would be a small one, called 2.1. However it appears that I’m not good at swearing because there is lots in the next release - I think we’re going to have to call it 3.0.So what's in DWR 3.0?
We're doing some Pub/Sub work, so DWR can be a Hub which can be used on it's own or plugged into JMS on the server-side or the OpenAjax Hub on the client. We're allowing file upload/download and some image management over DWR and adding support for JSONP and the Bayeux protocol. Another really cool feature is fairly complete version of the TIBCO GI API as a reverse ajax proxy, and I'm hoping that we can get Gears support for automatic off-line support and maybe to allow transactional remote calls. I'll be blogging about all this in more detail in a few days over at http://getahead.org/blog/joe.

Brian Marick takes us through a quick tour of the most important values and challenges to adopting Agile successfully (they aren't the typical challenges and values we hear in the community).
The line between development and architecture is tricky. Does it exist at all? Is an ivory tower actually needed? There's a balance in the middle, but how do you move from developer to architect?
The word 'authority' sometimes produces an allergic response in hard-line agilists. Freedom and authority – both are bad if misused and both are good if used in right spirit for a noble cause.
"Getting Started with Grails" brings you up to speed on this modern web framework. Companies as varied as LinkedIn, Wired, and Taco Bell are all using Grails. Are you ready to get started as well?
Those familiar with only ITIL V2 often scoff at the thought that ITIL could serve as a governance framework for SOA. With ITIL V3, the focus of the framework shifted towards service-orientation.
SpringSource CTO Adrian Colyer discusses AspectJ, SpringSource's dm Server and tc Server products, OSGi and Scrum.
Heroku's Adam Wiggins talks about Rails, Background Jobs, Add-Ons, Ruby, and how Heroku manages to work around Ruby's inefficiencies using Erlang and other languages.
For Grady Booch the foundation of a good architecture is patterns, SOA being just one of many patterns. In this Second Life presentation, Booch attempts to bring more clarity on what architecture is.
