Hi,

I don't say we are bombed back, but we will start delayed with a server
centered style of programming, with all it's advantages including
accesibility, what is an essential point of HCI. Enabling sever centered
programming with an XML pump to the FE is what AJAX originally does.
(Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) But that shouldn't be the topic of a
discussion. We need to accept that the time hasn't come yet for TYPO3.
