One goal of the presentation is to argue for the use of GWT as the foundation for RIA development.

Widget Libraries and Wysiwyg by Alex Zakharov Posted May 27, 2009 5:41 PM

    Widget Libraries and Wysiwyg

    May 27, 2009 5:41 PM by Alex Zakharov

    I'm curious about people's thoughts/experiences with 3-rd party widget libraries and/or Wysiwyg tools (i.e. GWT Designer from Instantiations). After two days of playing with it GWT Designer seems quite nice - it supports GWT 1.5 (1.6 support is in progress) and GWT-EXT. GWT-EXT seems to add some nice widgets to core GWT, albeit GWT-EXT widgets are not native. In contrast EXT-GWT does have native widgets but GWT Designer doesn't support it. Yet.

    Any opinions would be much appreciated.

Using ITIL V3 as a Foundation for SOA Governance

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.
