That's why I mentioned When.js for an eventual 2.0 fallback lib"When.js is a rock solid, battle-tested Promises/A+ andwhen()implementation, including a complete ES6 Promise shim"

I agree that it would be nice to implement AGJS-70 (Investigate removing jQuery requirement). Meanwhile, there is an open source project on GitHub that claims to offer a custom builder for jQuery in order to include only the modules needed [1] [2]. I haven't tried it yet but maybe we could create a custom jQuery build which includes only the parts currently needed in AeroGear. This would mean a smaller size of the jQuery dependency.The AG lib depends on a few parts of jQuery, the biggest being jQuery.Ajax and the promise implementation.i know we can make custom builds of jQuery pretty easily( building from source ), but i don't really want to bundle it within our lib.and i don't think with bower we can do this easily. although they did just add a post install hook, so perhaps that could be something to look at.Datamanager only uses the promise implementation of jQuery( and some random thing for the filter method, which could probably be updated ).
Promises are starting to become available natively in browsers and jQuery doesn't use the Promise/A+ spec, so it could be harder to fallback without a shim of some kindGood to know. Thanks for providing this info.
sounds reasonable to 'wait' on the promise side of things, and use that bit in the datamanager
+1there are other promise implementations that we could use, that are to spec, such as Q and RSVP, here is the link to the HTML5 rocks articleThese last days I have been playing with the library When provided by Cujo, it's maybe also worth looking https://github.com/cujojs/whennot sure I see value in using a different library as a temporary thing. Once the API is part of the browser platform, the need for [yet another js lib] goes away.I know but I'm more concerned about "Once the API is part of the browser platform" When will that happen and does it match with our roadmap ? Was also to offer a polyfill for older browser if we want to keep supporting them.i will have to update the roadmap.2.0 would be a nice time to "fully" switch, but we can start experimenting now and maybe for 1.5 can have some implemenation for data manager only.Current Chrome has Promise's enable by default and it looks like FireFox 29( next version ) will too. Safari and IE are in dev i believefor fallback we can still make use of jQuery i think because of this method here "Promise.cast",please strike this comment from the record, i'm an idiot :)_______________________________________________although the closest lib to the spec is RSVP( maybe this could be the 2.0 fallback if we remove jQuery from the whole lib )______________________________________________________________________________________________while i don't really want to reinvent the wheel in terms of Ajax, it might be interesting to take a look.Yeah, IMO worth to look there, for reducing dependencies-M
I think in a previous ML thread about what 2.0 looked like, that Pipeline would maybe just be a JSON only thing, with exception for multipart
@Lucas Thanks for making things clear
