[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#485975: RFP: qooxdoo -- Ajax application framework

[Niko Tyni]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : qooxdoo
  Version         : 0.7.3
  Upstream Author : 1&1 Internet AG
* URL             : http://www.qooxdoo.org/
* License         : dual LGPL / EPL (Eclipse Public License)
  Programming Lang: JavaScript
  Description     : Ajax application framework

Leveraging object-oriented JavaScript, qooxdoo allows developers to
build cross-browser applications. No HTML, CSS nor DOM knowledge is
needed. qooxdoo includes a platform-independent development tool chain,
a GUI toolkit and an advanced client-server communication layer.


The latest upstream version (2.4.0) of the smokeping package contains
generated files that need qooxdoo for rebuilding. While the generated
files are free, shipping them in Debian without being able to build them
from their preferred form of source with tools in Debian seems like a
violation of our Social Contract.

I'd be glad if somebody with more JavaScript clue than me could package
this. Cc'ing the Debian Javascript Maintainers as the most likely
candidate.
