It was an exciting OSCON for our little project. In addition to getting the first working demo running while sitting in the first night's keynote sessions, we had a small combined Dojo/Cometd BOF thanks to David's quick thinking.

In addition to general geekery, we also snuck in some time to discuss protocol semantics for the wire format that Cometd uses and a discussion of what to name the protocol.

In earlier discussions about what to call the project, Matt Trout had suggested "Bayeux", and while we eventually went with Cometd, we realize now that the protocol needs a separate moniker, so we're pressing Bayeux into service.

We hope to be publising a draft of the JSON protocol spec sometime in the next couple of weeks along with some demos (or at least a screencast of the demo we already have working). Until then, you can keep tabs on our progress in subversion and on the mailing lists.
