Background

At October face to face meeting, we had a discussion around various issues related to network communications. Greg Wilkins agreed to write something up. Alex Russell and Coach Wei both agreed to participate and help on this topic.

Subsequently, Greg Wilkins wrote a very good piece on background information and proposals for adding communications/messaging features to the OpenAjax Hub. This document is located at Interoperability Communication.

Working Documents

Proposals

Relationship to other forums

This Task Force needs to do appropriate due diligence about related work being performed by other organizations. Here is an initial list of things to research:

  • Ajax toolkits - what sorts of cross-browser communications APIs are available in popular Ajax toolkits that might be informative to any APIs we might develop?
  • W3C WebApps WG - what is the current state of XMLHttpRequest and cross-domain scripting
  • WhatWG - Are there any advanced specifications related to communications issues
  • Mozilla - What new communications features are on the roadmap, such as implementing WebAppsWG or WhatWG proposals?
  • Portal standards activities Portal Ajax Integration


The task force also needs to collaborate with the Security TF on any issues where communications and security overlap.
