Re: [Dynapi-Help] documentation, presence, etc.

[Scott A. L. <sc...@sc...>]

This is very cool work.

I think the biggest hurdle is simply getting the core API documentation
done.  I would propose a slight change in the directory structure (the
distribution, not the DB):

API: the base essentials

dynapi
dynlayer
dyndocument
events
browser

Extensions: scripts that add methods/functionality to core objects

inline
layer
loadHTML
slide

Utilities: standalone objects that can interact with core objects

dragevent
functions
cookies

GUI: user interface widgets/controls

label
button
scrollbar

Everything else can be regarded as a widget pack: WGX,IBS, etc.
