| <theme name="Widget improvements and additions"> |
| <description> |
| <html:div> |
| <html:p> |
| As in every release, we plan to improve the RAP widget set. |
| This includes a new Tree, non-native scrollbars, and including the |
| upload widget into the release. |
| To support custom widgets better, we'd also like to come up with a |
| small documented JavaScript API for custom widgets. |

| <description> |
| <html:div> |
| <html:p> |
| We want to further improve the look and feel of RAP applications by |
| adding more theming features like shadows and more animations. |
| Our aging default theme also needs a fresh look. |
| Those widgets that are not very customizeable by theming, should be |
| improved. We also plan to ease the theming of custom widgets. |

| We notice that mobile devices are gaining popularity and thus we |
| want to improve RAP on those devices. |
| For a start, we plan to fix blocking bugs on iPhone/iPad and make |
| RAP work on Adroid. |
| Moreover, we will work towards a well-defined JSON protocol between |
| client and server that will once allow for exchangeable client |
| implementations. |
