Requirements

  • CLI (?)
    • I don't think this is necessary as an additional abstraction layer. There is still the SOAP and REST interface --Haarlaender 15:12, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
  • plugin interface to extend support for solutions
    • Maybe like a set of managers (one for managing users, one for contexts etc.) with user interfaces that can be "pre-configured". Means certain values are preset by the current solution. --Haarlaender 15:12, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

• check on more light-weight technology esp. for the GUI
• 1&1 GUI widgets
• Groovy, Grails
• GWT - javascript too cryptic, widgets compared to what other FW provide
• javaScript based
• portal/portlets

• todo: evaluation of FWs
