Description

I would like to see the following features completed in the Tuscany Atom binding:

• support for eTags, last-modified headers, complete support for location header

• on the client side, caching using eTag and/or lastModified

• the ability to negociate content types (XML, JSON etc) and use the corresponding Tuscany databindings to provide data with the requested content type

• support for postMedia and putMedia, including the ability to stream that content in the target application component

• support for security as required by the Atompub spec, and mapping between the security features and corresponding SCA security policies

• complete generation of an AtomPub workspace/service document, for a service, component or a group of related components (potentially in a composite), somebody should study this to find the correct granularity level

• samples/scenarios that help us explore how to implement relationships between two (Atom) collections of resources (e.g. Customer and Account, with a Customer owning multiple Accounts)

• A proper Javascript object model for an Atom collection and Atom entries to facilitate the use of Atom in Javascript clients, modeled after the Abdera model for collection and entry.

• A Javascript model for Atom collections and entries mirroring the Tuscany Java data.Collection interface, providing simple access to business data objects in an Atom collection.

• Finally somebody should do a pass through the Atom and AtomPub specs and make sure that we're not missing any big feature from the spec.
