[...] Dupa care se sta si se insira (aiurea) o lista intreaga de implementari open-source, gen Kaffe (punct ochit, dar probabil din greseala), un framework ajax care n-are nici o legatura, Apache Harmony care nu este decat o alta tentativa de a reinventa roata [yet again], un Java webring fara legatura (si ar fi fost mult mai relevant java-source.net).

Also, a few words about what we have recently put into the open source domain, and what we have committed to put in over time. In the interest of getting code into the communityâ€™s hands sooner rather than later, we have released a basic form of our client framework, some documentation, and a simple demo. This was done to provide access to Helmiâ€™s Virtual Browser and AJAX Component Framework technology, but is only an early glimpse at the overall direction.

Source is readable does not mean that it is Open Source.
It would have been nice to have some examples and some demo code. At least we could have made our own picture of it and not have to trust this announcement.
