Re: [cosmos-dev] Cosmos and RAP

[David Whiteman <David_Whiteman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Benny,

I spoke with the primary person involved
with researching the tools and technology we used in building our UI, and
he said that at the time, RAP wasn't ready for production, and we really
couldn't wait for it.  Also, Dojo has gained a lot of traction, and
our understanding was that RAP uses qooxdoo.

Regards,
David
