This page describes our plan for making JsWidget something we want people to use.

Pre-releases

The following are "preview" versions, not things we suggest you use in a massive public-facing web service.

0.1

  • It exists at all!

0.2

  • Correct questions

0.3

  • Apache Content Negotiation for language selection
  • (Hopefully) stable API for importing and exporting license choices
  • IE (6 and 7) compatibility

0.4

  • all HTML elements and CSS classes are prefixed with cc_js_ to avoid namespace clashes with others' apps
  • Safari compatibility
  • Opera compatibility

At this point, there is feature completeness for the core JsWidget code. There is code clean-up to do after this, and there is external translation work to do, but that should be all. Bugfixes as needed before 1.0.

0.5

  • Massive clean-out of unused JavaScript code and unused CSS style
  • Remove dependency on Prototype
  • Performance analysis, fixes based on this
  • Security analysis of server-side and client-side code, fixes based on this

0.7

  • UI prettification (done by Alex)
  • code prettification (by Asheesh)
    • use zc.buildout for dependencies

0.9

  • Just like 1.0, hopefully.

Release

The following are versions we suggest you use in a massive public-facing web service.

1.0

  • All strings are translated
  • We have a story for keeping this up with high reliability
  • It looks nice
