Do we really need either Angular's or htmlbars' (see slide 37) way of "decorating DOM elements with behavior" when it is so trivial with just ES5 and HTML? See this jsfiddle: http:…

I've begun work on an Adobe-AIR like system, similar to something I've already done with Tcl (http://code.google.com/p/deskml/) but with Ruby instead. Below's a link to a forum whe…

The following approximation of Adobe AIR took gluing together and/or modifying about a half-dozen existing open source projects with just about 100 lines of code: http://code.googl…

I've always said Ben Franklin was the father of open source, at least as pertains to hardware: "Of the numerous inventions Franklin created, he did not patent a single one"; see ht…

It's a shameless plug for my own project idea, see http://wiki.tcl.tk/28062 Last year I devised an open source alternative to Adobe AIR ( http://code.google.com/p/deskml/ ) and int…

Earlier this year I prototyped a very rough equivalent of Adobe AIR, please see http://code.google.com/p/deskml/ I haven't had a lot of time to push it forward so the first thing I…
