Introduction to Grizzlets
Jean-Francois Arcand's Blog offers an introduction to Grizzlets, a small API that lets you write Comet-style Ajax applications more easily. He writes that rather than expecting developers to create their own Comet implementations with Servlets, "it would be much more simple if we can write a single POJO class, hook it to an Ajax client, and bang make it work! So here comes Grizzlet, an extremely simple POJO based approach to write Comet based application!" In a code example, he shows that Grizzlets are POJOs, implementing a single Grizzlet interface.

Re: SVGMobileAerithDemo & uilabs_demos.jar ???
There currently is no ready-to-run binary of the Mobile Aerith demo available. But running it yourself is easy. Check out the code from the link Borrys supplied using subversion. [...] Then open the project using NetBeans 5.5.1 with Mobility pack by pointing NetBeans to the top-level directory of MobileAerith. After NetBeans has opened the project just click the "Run" button in NetBeans and off you go.  

How to evaluate expressions in the java source debug context?
As a swing developer, I usually need to debug something in the java source debug context. That's always not obvious (Even in this morning, I was pissed off for someone let a JTree's root node have a parent. That cost me two hours to debug and guess), and I got used to cost my whole lovely morning to find a clue in the java source code. Because I can not evaluate expressions in the java source debug context, at least, eclipse does that way. I want to konw if Netbeans can do that, or if that is a way to make eclipse work.  

Re: Embeding JMAKI widgets in a JMAKI grid widget
I too want to use the Ext widgets within JMaki, and in what little spare time I have I am currently working on adding various Ext widgets. An older release of JMaki came with the Ext menu, tree and editable grid widgets bundled in a .zip file. This is what I am adding to in the hope that they can be used in the future. It may be an option for you to use the library from this older release (don't know if the Ext licensing would permit this), but I know from a previous post of mine that the JMaki team were hoping to be able to distribute Ext widgets as a separate bundle.

SailFin: The SailFin project is a communication application server that provides SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) functionality to GlassFish. As the project page points out, "SIP and SIP Servlets are behind many popular services we enjoy today, like Voice-over-IP (VoIP) phone service, instant messaging, presence and buddy list management and web conferencing." The project currently implements JSR-116 functionality and is working towards JSR 289 compatibility. SailFin Milestone 1 came out in October, and Milestone 2 is expected in October.
