Hi there,

    back in the old days I used to use GWT alot in conjunction with
Tapestry. Nowadays it would be fine to develop using JS at the Client side
and I want to use Tapestry at the backend.

I would love to use something like socket.IO directly within the
JS-client-code so I investigated the Atmosphere (github) package. Saidly
there is no direct implementation nor support for the Tapestry world. And
it looks like I would loose a whole weekend trying without a guarantee that
I come up with something good.

Currently implementing Atmosphere I would go for a
HttpServletRequestHandler, warp the Tapestry servlet or even alter it
directly (so I can use the default Atmosphere servlet based on the accessed
page and so on. The way I used to implement GWT by creating a Page writing
http directly using a MarkupWriter seams not to be that feasable since
Atmosphere has a bunch of things to do, I dont understand right now.

So I would love to know what is the current preferred way to use something
like the socket.io lib in conjunction with Tapestry as the serving backend?
