  You need to download the zip archive.

  Browse over some of the talk slides online @

  Good point. Everyone agrees with you. Luxor's "API"
needs to get cleaned up and cut back on intrusive
classes and use just plain old Java objects (POJOs)
instead.

  It's not built-in. The flow is up to you. There is
now Luxor XUL browser for now. You're more than
welcome to build the first one.

  A getting started tutorial is more than welcome. Let
us know how it goes. Also you're more than welcome to
write-up your ideas on how to improve Luxor and make
using forms, actions/events, etc. easier.
