Hi Folks,

I'm looking at building a data management application that's essentially
a hybrid of an HTML5 WebApp (taking advantage of the App Cache and local
data storage for disconnected operation) and a CouchApp (doing fancier
stuff, data sharing, replication, etc. on one or more server-side
CouchDB installations). If you think of a collection of linked
spreadsheets - where each spreadsheet "lives" in CouchDB, but can be
cached, viewed, and edited in-browser when disconnected - you won't be
far off.

My questions: Are there any good examples of applications that are
already doing this kind of thing? Are there any good frameworks or
libraries that I should be focusing on?

Thanks very much,

Miles Fidelman

Datacouch is interesting, looks like the developer is local, I'll have
to follow up.

"Others coming" is sort of a tease :-)

Thanks,

Miles
