Package cometd-javascript: Information

Cometd is a scalable HTTP-based event routing bus that uses
a Ajax Push technology pattern known as Comet. The term
'Comet' was coined by Alex Russell in his post Comet: Low
Latency Data for the Browser.
The JavaScript implementation of the Bayeux specification
and API has been totally rewritten starting from CometD
version 1.0.beta8, and further refactored since 1.0.beta9.
What is available now is a portable JavaScript
implementation with bindings for the major JavaScript
toolkits, currently Dojo and jQuery.
What this means is that the CometD Bayeux JavaScript
implementation is written in pure JavaScript with no
dependencies on the toolkits, and that the toolkit
bindings add the syntactic sugar that makes the Bayeux
APIs feel like they are native to the toolkit.
