Hi Bernard,
I'm a Domino developer too.

I'm using the sigslots library from netwindows with great success.

Regarding getting data from Notes Views you could try making you views 
output XML instead or even use the Domino command ?ReadViewEntries so that 
Domino outputs the view as XML instead of HTML. There are some really 
exciting possibilities revealed when you start doing this.

There's a project on openntf.org called "Domino Web Tools " 
(http://www.openntf.org/Projects/pmt.nsf/ProjectHome?ReadForm&Query=Domino%20Web%20Tools) 
which provides a very good example of this technique. They even have a 
generic XSL file for the Domino view XML output.

If you don't want to use XSL, having the view data as XML is a very useful 
starting point if you want to process it into the existing page's HTML.

Combining some ideas from Domino Web Tools into a netwindows based 
framework would be a good match for Domino web apps IMHO.

Cheers,
Andrew Tetlaw
