Well, it has been quite a while since I updated anything here, things have been extremely busy lately. Though there’s a lot of interesting things going on.

Ajax Experience
The presentation at The Ajax Experience Boston was a big hit. The session went much more hands on than my previous in San Fran as I walked through some full end-to-end examples using a MySQL database and some simple PHP scripts to feed the data to Ext. I will make the slides and example code available soon.

Ext 2.0 RC1
The Ext team has continued to crank away and recently released 2.0 Release Candidate 1, looks like they’re on track for the official 2.0 release later this month. As always, check out the download page for the latest release.

New Ext 2.0 Documents
Ext has always had some of the best documentation available for an open source framework. Lately the team has worked up some very nice overview and conversion docs to help everyone make the transition and learn the new Ext 2.0 architecture. They are featured prominently at the top of the Ext Learn page.

Ext.nd Updates
I have been asked from quite a few people about Ext 2.0 and Ext.nd. We have started working on the conversion process and will release it as soon as we’ve finished converting the existing components over. We are looking at pushing out a final release based of the the Ext 1x that includes our last round of bug fixes and even tosses in the ViewSuggest component I hinted at a while back. Keep an eye out for this release in the very near future.

More to come soon…
