Actually, I have another comment to make about the FopSpeen project.  Why go
through all those hoops illustrated in the diagram?  Use .NET/Mono for the
UI, use MyXaml for the scripting interface, and use C# for the client side
scripting.  You can eliminate all the different layers in the FopSpeen
design diagram, and get your apps working with a browser and desktop
solution simultaneously, under multiple browsers and desktop OS's.

MyXaml runs on Mono, and Mono runs on Windows/Linux.  Why not develop a
MyXaml plug-in for IE and FireFox that uses .NET/Mono?  Simple, doable, and,
erm...being done!  If anyone is interested in working with me on this, let
me [email protected]
