[Seaside] Wafer weblog sample application

[tblanchard at mac.com]

I demo'd this last night and completely blew the attendees (about a 
dozen) away.

I reckon I spent about 6 hours on the presentation bit (and probably 5 
times that playing with various persistence mechanisms - the one I 
demo'd used GLORP on PGSQL - the one I posted used SmartFileDictionary 
- the GLORP one is simpler).

The user group leader said the java based ones took about a week and 
the code was considerably more complex.  They were really amazed at the 
simplicity of the code and the state management.  I also served some 
images of a running Watch morph for kicks as well as showed the squeak 
plugin (which I'd like to do a client server integration from seaside 
for - just need a few more hours in the day).

You can download other examples

I'd guess I've made a convert or two.  I'm going to refactor the thing 
a bit, remove my wizzy variations with graphics and plugins, and use 
more delegation - then submit it to the project.  I'll put the new 
version up here for comments before I do that.
