OpenAjax Hub Specification ImplementationMetadata

Notes:

This wiki page holds a portion of the latest internal editorial draft for the OpenAjax Hub 1.0 Specification. The home wiki page for the latest draft specification is at /member/wiki/OpenAjax_Hub_Specification.
This version of the Hub Specification does not yet completely reflect decisions made about the Hub at the March 2007 face-to-face meeting. There are a number of open issues that will need to be resolved before the specification can be considered stable (see /member/wiki/OpenAjax_Hub_Specification_Issues).
There is a previous stable version of the Hub Specification before removing features such as the Markup Scanner at /member/wiki/OpenAjax_Hub_Specification_v04, but note that the v04 specification does not reflect the major decisions at the March 2007 face-to-face meeting, which are summarized at /blogs/?p=21.
