It’s been a while since I’ve said anything about the progress of Ext.nd, Jack and I have been quite busy since Lotusphere. We’ve been on the verge of a new release for a while hope to have it tested and available soon.

As for the framework itself we’ve made some great progress lately. Jack has implemented a first pass at rendering categorized views and has done a lot of work to make them play nicely with a PagingToolbar. I’ve recently finished a large rewrite of the outline and view code to directly extend TreePanel and GridPanel. This change has allowed for much greater flexibility as we can now include domino components directly into an Ext layout via XType. The changes have allowed for some nice refactoring, leading to much cleaner code and increased performance.

Keep your eyes peeled, I’ll announce the release here and in the forums when it is available.
