Hi,

I would love to see a tree view instead of only seeing the child nodes of the current node, ala JCR Controller, as shown here:

I personally find it a much more intuitive perspective, and my colleague also agrees. We are a small company and have decided to use your tool rather than building something similar, so you will here more as we start using it daily...

Best,

Mark

Ok, the tree is coming now. After evaluation of some JSF component libraries I finally decided to use JBoss RichFaces (formerly Exadel) which also has a nice AJAX tree component. Current status:

- The tree is basically working and looks nice
- Expansion of selected nodes doesn't work
- Update of the tree doesn't work right now in case the underlying data have been changed

These two points are the only two things that are between the Explorer and release 0.9.6., but it's kinda tricky so far. Stay tuned...
