Well, I just downloaded it and checked it out, and I don't think this could really be used as
a way to describe platform-independent UI's. (Can I attach a copy of an XML here w/out
violating some copyright? Hmm...maybe a piece of it... :)
<JFrame name="MainFrame" title="Bluestone XML Notepad" image="icon.gif" x="20%" y="20%"
width="60%" height="60%">
<JMenuBar>
<JMenu text="File" mnemonic="F">
<JMenuItem icon="open.gif" text="Open..." mnemonic="O"
accelerator="VK_O,CTRL_MASK" actionListener="OpenFile"/>
etc...
This looks basically like Java code with an XML syntax. It doesn't abstract at the nature of
components, or interactions. I guess what it is, is one way to get a scripting functionality
in Java; a competitor to projects like the BeanShell.
