+ 2010-03-14 steve schmechel
+ Without the z3c.widget, this how-to does not offer much beyond 
+ what is already covered in the forms tutorial.  
+ For now, this how-to is retracted from public viewing on the Grok site.
+ It might be possible to create a birthday reminder and/or wiki 
+ application (as ideas from this how-to) as part of a YUI or other AJAX 
+ tutorial.

  Martijn comments:
  Refers to z3c.widget, which in turn depends on a rather ugly library
  called z3c.javascript that's only available if a find-links to
  http://download.zope.org/distribution is present in buildout.cfg. We
  are not including this anymore in the standard Grok buildout.cfg, so
  depending on z3c.widget will fail as z3c.javascript cannot be
  installed.
  
  I think the tutorial should be modified so it doesn't refer to
  z3c.widget anymore.
  
  I think it would be possible to rewrite the tutorial to less pretty
  but working out-of-the-box widget. We'd lose a bit of tutorial content
  as .custom_widget isn't demonstrated, so perhaps we can find another
  widget library to replace z3c.widget. I think thanks to
  z3c.autoinclude we could also reduce some of the stuff talking about
  ZCML.
