    Is there any studio to develop forms?
    started

    Orbeon is working very hard on a Form Builder. Stay tuned for more information in the next 2-3 months!

    Provide a date entry field where users can type in dates
    started

    Currently, you have to use the date picker which is inadequate for entering lots of dates or dates far in the past.

    Update the User Guide

    The User guide now is quite good, however it would be good to have a "real life" Example for each part of the user guide. For instance have 1 or 2 demo applications and refer to that application when you are describing a concept.

    Add widget for each primitive XSD datatype (time, dateTime)
    started

    This is essential for practical use. For example, we should not expect users to know the exact format for time, dateTime, duration (e.g. P5DT4H). So there should be a widget for at least each basic XSD datatype.

    We can only agree that we need such widgets.

    Allow execution of xxforms:script on xforms-ready event

    xxforms:script is a good way to put javascript code in a clear way. But if you put a xxforms:script in an event xforms-ready, Orbeon don't execute or call the script.
    For example:
    <xforms:model ...>
    ...
    <xxforms:script ev:event="xforms-ready">
    alert("The xforms is ready!");
    ORBEON.xforms.Document.setValue("foo", 42);
    </xxforms:script>
    </xforms:model>

    This problem was informed in bug #306043 on 2006-08-24!! See details on following link:

    http://forge.objectweb.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=306034&group_id=168&atid=350207

    But for a better and complete solution, the xxforms:script would execute under all types of ev:event.

    Provide hosting for OPS & charge by # of hosted forms

    Allow people to host forms via the people who brought us Orbeon! THhis allows for developing and deploying small-scale solutions quickly w/o the need for their one's own Application Server or Hosting Provider. Users can be charged by usage of their form and the total # of forms hosted. What do you think?

    Add some jazzed up demo's like OpenLaszlo

    The current demos are very functional & neat, but may some with some jazzed up UI's could be nice. It would take some integration with maybe some other 3rd party toolkits.

    Thanks for the suggestion. We wholeheartedly agree that the demos need some improvement. We are working on a very nice Form Runner and Form Builder combo which we think will be very nice, so stay tuned!
