OpenLaszlo presentation 
I was on the seminar earlier this week and enjoyed the presentation, especially the way Koen showed how easy it is to present a rich user experience quite quickly.
I missed some explanation concerning the client - server communication which is equally important for most projects (it is stil a client, isn't it ?). Don't know if anyone has good pointers for this part of the story ?
