Description

Some of the initial thoughts are:-

• use dojo.widget.defineWidget instead of the old-way of using
  dojo.provide, dojo.extends etc. Dojo got most of its widget rewritten using
  this way.

• have struts2 widgets/utils as a separate module and add them in
  using dojo.setModulePrefix(...) (0.3) I think the method is renamed in 0.4
  and the concept of module is namespace in 0.4

• have javadoc comments in our widget, hopefully it would be easier
  to follow and maybe if possible able to generate docs like
  http://dojotoolkit.org/api But I am not sure about how to do this yet.
  Definitely interested in finding out more.

• have a test folder, like dojo's where we could have pages that test
  the widget, we could use Pat's product to do test the pages (something
  like HostedQA or Selenium)

Please feel free to add on information / discuess / express thoughts etc.
