Description

Our dojox.cometd seems to be largely abandoned (I think Greg and company are working on cometd elsewhere) and the main show in town now is WebSocket?. There are a wide variety of different protocols and messaging formats for communication out there now. I think we should provide a simple lightweight API for using WebSocket? and falling back to basic XHR long-polling that is protocol/message format agnostic. This would fit well with our HTML5 push, and allow us to have a comet client without committing to a single format/protocol or have to maintain a large complicated system.
