| The RAP project enables developers to build rich, Ajax-enabled Web |
| applications by using the Eclipse development model, plug-ins with |
| the well known Eclipse workbench extension points, JFace, and a |
| widget toolkit with SWT API. |
| </div><div> |
| Plans for previous releases can be found on these |
| <a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/RapPlan">wiki pages</a>. |
| </div><h2><a name="release_deliverables">Release Deliverables</a></h2><div> |

| <li> |
| <strong>Tooling</strong>: |
| contains useful tools, templates and documentation for RAP development. |
| Available as p2 repository. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <strong>Runtime SDK</strong>: |
| contains the RAP runtime to be used as target platform, |
| including sources and a simple demo application. |
| Available as p2 repository. |

| </ul> |
| </div><p><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></p><h2><a name="release_milestones">Release Milestones</a></h2><div> |
| Release milestones will be occurring at roughly 6 week intervals, |

| The server-side part of the Rich Ajax Platform 1.3 will be written and |
| compiled against |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/equinox/server/">Equinox</a> |
| Version 3.6</li> |
| <li>Version 1.4.2 of the Java Platform APIs (i.e., Java 2 Platform, |
| Release 1.4.2 SE)</li> |
| <li> |
| <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/reference/api/index.html"> |
| Java Servlet API</a> Version 2.3 - 2.5</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The client-side reference implementation depends upon |
| <a href="http://qooxdoo.org">qooxdoo</a>. |
| For this release the following web browsers/rendering engines will be |
| supported |
| <ul> |
| <li>Internet Explorer >= 6.0, version 7 and later is recommended</li> |
| <li>Gecko (i.e. Firefox, Netscape)</li> |
| <li>Webkit (i.e. Safari, Google Chrome)</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
| </div><h3>Internationalization</h3> |
| <div> |
| The Rich Ajax Platform is designed as the basis for internationalized |
| products. The user interface elements provided by the RAP |
| components, including dialogs and error messages, are externalized. The |
| English strings are provided as the default resource bundles. |
| </div> |

| RWT implements a subset of the SWT API. |
| We aim to implement SWT functionality that is yet missing from RWT. |
| This includes enabling this newly implemented API in higher layers |
| (e.g. Workbench, JFace). |
