Atmosphere 0.4 Released
Atmosphere 0.4, the framework that allow the creation of RESTFul and Ajax Push/Comet applications, is ready for prime time. This release contains many new features and can be seen in action in many well-known frameworks.
First, I would like to thanks Paul Sandoz, Viktor Klang, Gerard Davison, Vlatko Davidobski, Hubert Iwaniuk, Bertrand Goetzmann,Cagatay Civici, Michal Hanti, A. Eduardo Garcia, Ransford Segu-Baffoe and Jim Driscoll for their contribution to that release!
Atmosphere’s adoption continues with this release, starting with PrimeFaces’ support for Ajax Push/Comet (event on the iPhone). You can also see Atmosphere in action within the Scala based Akka Project. Don’t want to use Java? Why not using the Atmosphere Grails’ plug in. Don’t like Scala, Java and Groovy? Why not trying JRuby!
