some progress at last

Finally up and running after the frustrations of the download process and the setup of the image, which needed some config change to expose the web services and webapp to the network. Thanks to a big effort by Alex on Saturday we finally have a system we can develop on.

On the brighter side we've had more time to read up on the GWT and the DFS both of which look very cool, like a couple of sharp looking sports cars entering the test track, will they live up to the hype or blow a gasket on the first lap.

Managed to get a simple tree working with the GWT and implementing the search service to populate it with proper docbase folders didn't seem to hard. Very cool, ajax with no javascript. Now for the trickier stuff, getting actual content across the GWT and into the repository and back again. Time for some more reading...
