Ajax Summit
O'Reilly has teamed up with Adaptive Path on an Ajax Summit -- a gathering of developers and designers for the purposes of exploring the Ajaxian way of web application development. While I'll be writing up some take-aways from the summit in the next day or three, I thought I'd point at the live notes flowing to the Ajaxian blog in the meantime.

Silicon Valley Watcher writes: "AJAX technology obviously has great promise: three months after being named, AJAX technology is already getting baked into the websites of the Web 2.0 startups and the Web 1.0 giants. This kind of adoption rate is remarkable for a technology that lacks a crisp definition and a mature toolset. It seems clear that we can expect great things from AJAX in the next 12 months."
At Backbase we just released our vision on Rich Internet Applications: the article is called "AJAX and Beyond".
In order to deliver a manageable and scalable RIA solution we need to go beyond the customs widgetry of the current AJAX model. At Backbase we started in 2002 to develop a new generic client-side GUI management engine (the Backbase Presentation Client) and we combined it with a declarative tag-based UI language: named BXML (Backbase eXtensible Markup Language).
The BackBase Presentation Client (BPC) is fully based on AJAX technologies, but extends it with a generic UI declaration language (BXML). It interprets the BXML tags and transforms then into the correct DOM commands, keeping full control over aspects like: layout, state, asynchronous communication, data binding, events, relationships, hierarchy and many more.
Both the Backbase Presentation Client and BXML are designed to kick-start Rich Internet Applications projects using normal HTML technologies.

Quinn Norton has a nice writeup on the O'Reilly Network of post-summit conversation with myself and Jesse James Garrett.
OT: Jouk seems to spend a lot of time on various blogs spamming folks about Backbase [Backpack + Basecamp?]. This is the third time in less than a week I've come across shameless plugs hyping his outift. Frankly it's annoying since most of the posts don't really have much to do with the threads...

I just wanted to know can the BXML technology also be used to write rich websites and not just web applications? can someone e-mail me this answer please
