Hi all,

It has been a while that I was really involved in developing on (QC)Magritte
and doing stuff on the web ...

I am all in favour of forming a group of active people to do some
improvements on Magritte. I wrote on my todo list that I should feed back
some of the improvements made in QCMagritte back to Magritte, but feeling a
lack of interest from the community it dropped of my list. Maybe now is a
good time to find some room in my schedule for doing so.

First of all I want to advertise QCMagritte: This framework is easy to use.
It has a seaside like tutorial, that every developer should be able to
follow without any significant problems and shows all significant features
of both Magritte, Seaside and QCMagritte. Although it lacks documentation on
the technical details of the framework, it has documentation included how to
use the framework (as a developer).

Secondly. I agree that the most easy customisation of Magritte is using
custom components. The Magritte components provided are quite basic. That is
why in QCMagritte there is a number of components included that support AJAX
functionality. It also contains a component that allows inline editing in a
report. The idea about Magritte is also that the descriptions do not require
a certain set of components. I.e. there was also an attempt on creating a
Morph set of components ... that is a bit incomplete.

Third. Feeding the improvements I have made in QC Magritte back into
Magritte should probably be discussed this on the Magritte mailinglist. So I
will do this in a separate post, mailing to bost lists.

Cheers,
Diego
