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.

Make Orbeon forms compatible with Google Wave platform
Google Wave looks like it is going to revolutionize online collaboration. It seems to be fairly extensible, and is built on XLM documents, so it seems like it might be possible to connect Orbeon forms directly to this platform. Could be a huge win for collaborative forms editing.

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 widget for each primitive XSD datatype (time, dateTime)
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.
Status: startedWe now have such widgets for time and dateTime. Our XBL support allows you to implement widgets for other types, including durations. In the future hopefully such will be included by default with Orbeon Forms.

xxforms:dialog: copy over id/class from xforms:label
Right now, if you have an id="..." or class="...", those are not copied to the <div> corresponding to the label in the generated HTML.

jboss5 orbeon installation
Installation on JBOSS5 as extracted WAR deployment failed, this cause remaked eXist db.
Solution is that you need to remove "org/xml/sax/" from exist-xmlrpc-1_2-patched.jarI am not sure to understand this one. Are you suggesting that we add something to the JBoss installation instructions (http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/intro-install#jboss)? It looks like you found the solution to a problem on JBoss, and it would be good to capture this in the documentation. Could you elaborate on this?

Pin modal dialog to page, not viewport
This makes a difference when scrolling:
If the dialog is pinned to the viewport, it always stays visible in the viewport when you scroll through the page with the browser scroll bars.
If the dialog was pinned to the page, then it would be easier to see the rest of the page when scrolling.

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!

xxforms:dialog: allow label to be changed dynamically
Right now the server does not sent anything to the client when the label of a dialog changes. This is an issue, in particular, when changing the language for a page, and titles for dialogs are expected to change as well.

"Save as" functionality in FormBuilder
Right now in FormBuilder it seems that if you save an existing form with a new name, it renames the existing form, rather than creating a fresh copy with the new name.
The latter would be much better, since it would allow one to create a "form template" and then specialize it by saving ... moreThat sounds like a good suggestion, thanks!

Add description to the sandbox examples / link with doc
the sandbox examples are very useful, but it's sometimes hard to find the example that fits a certain problem. additionally, there could be links in the documentation to the example that demonstrates a certain technique. So the user can easily switch from the docs to a implementation example.

Form Runner: Attach XML form data to generated PDF using XMP
For reference, the XMP specification: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/xmp/pdfs/xmp_specification.pdf
We would add this as a feature of the oxf:pdf-template-base processor (org.orbeon.oxf.processor.pdf.PDFTemplateProcessor).
iText support for XMP: http://www.1t3xt.info/api/com/lowagie/text/xml/xmp/XmpWriter.html
