It's not a question about the comet community, it's just that this is only half of the problem. You eventually need a comet client (such as jquery, dojo, or custom clients according to the server), but first you need a comet server to connect to (such as Jetty, WebSync, etc). Once you pick the server, you can then pick the client. If it's a Beayux client (such as the two servers mentioned) which is an open spec, then you can just plug in any client that supports that standard.

  • but shouldn´t it be some more tutorials on this issue. looks like there are just a handful of them out there and very undescriptive. – ajsie Jan 11 '10 at 21:02
  • There are lots of tutorials, it's just that they all start with the server. For example, there are a ton here: http://www.frozenmountain.com/websync/support/tutorials, but you have to have picked WebSync before those tutorials are of any use. – jvenema Jan 12 '10 at 03:36
