got in my email.
I talk about it by answering because it seems more reliable. And
because it's quite a big issue for the project.

>
> the first thing we need is an official website with up to date

> Right now we have :

http://smalltalk.gnu.org/project/Iliad : pointing to an
> homepage wich does'nt exist anymore (the content displayed is some
> WiMAX japanese thing) ;
> -
https://github.com/NicolasPetton/iliad with no life since

> -
https://code.google.com/archive/p/iliadproject : same

> - and 4 projects on SmalltalkHub which does'nt show up on
> google and with very little content to help new users.

> Back on code, my wishlist/needs are :
>
> #Better integration of CSS
> We are able to cope with html and javascript in Smalltalk, why
> isn't it the case with CSS ?
> We should be able to :
> - manage multiple css class for a widget without having
> concatene strings ;
> - list all css class used in an application and generate a
> basic css file with default values provided by widget ;
> - maybe to have extensions to theme an app with Bootstrap
> or Foundation (not really a need for myself as I am using
> PocketGrid, but I think it would be great for advertisement).
>

> I think there are two fronts with CSS.
>
> One is to support "native" CSS objects (nice for a future UI builder and
> creatings CSS constructs beyond current high-level presentation objects
> provided by CSS libraries). On this side there are several who attempted
> to provide CSS Frameworks (myself included) for example
>
https://github.com/gcotelli/RenoirSt and
>
http://www.smalltalkhub.com/#!/~hernan/Phantasia> (I guess people is not very interested in this route now...)
>
> Another front is a model to import "external" arbitrary CSS framework:
>
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CSS_frameworks> <
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_CSS_frameworks>
> On this side I still have to decouple PureCSS.io (a responsive CSS
> framework) from an extension library I am writing, so any other external
> CSS framework could be "easily" imported. There is also
>
http://ss3.gemstone.com/ss/CSSFrameworks.html which I haven't checked yet.
>
>
> #Simple way to add shortcuts
> I would like to allow the use of keypress shortcuts for navigation
> in my webapps but for now what I tried does'nt seem to work, and a
> real support in the framework would be nice.
> Maybe going as far as having an event listener with a full
> propagation model.
>
>
> #Update the version of jQuery used
> Just to be sure to avoid bitrotting and for showing that Iliad is
> still alive
>
>
> Yes, this is important to keep in sync with other Js libraries...
>
>
> #Port to ZnServer
> Same thing as jQuery, it seems the way to go and maybe should give
> us some easier interactions with other citizens of our beloved
> Smalltalk realm (like Teapot).
>
>
> Maybe someone could check the first Seaside version with Zinc support?
> We could start from there.
>
>
> #Better comments and more example right in the source code
> Self explaining, but we are clearly not on the quality level
> wanted by the Pharo team.
>

> I did a pass today to the source code and there are practically no
> comments at all :(

>
> And there is some things that I would like to be able to do but
> don't know right now if/how it's possible :
>
> #Being able to generate and serve later a static version from a page
> served by Iliad, the idea is that I am using Iliad as a private
> application (protected by a password), but would like to be able to
> publish some content done in the application.

> Have you checked
https://github.com/guillep/ecstatic ? Maybe there is
> something interesting from there?

> #I can't found a wey to give the focus to an input field that I just

> Didn't tried yet, but AFAIK in Seaside you need to pass some javascript.
