ItsNat is a recent toolkit for Java Developers looking to develop Ajax and Comet applications. The toolkit contains a fairly extensive feature showcase. ItsNat takes a very different server-centric approach than I would normally take with a combo such as Dojo + Cometd. Nevertheless, the emergence of many Comet implementations with different approaches is exciting.

First of all, thanks for your comments.
ItsNat is server centric but can coexist and cooperate with rich JavaScript libraries like Dojo, do you know Dojo?
For instance, you can send custom JavaScript from server (ItsNatDocument.addCodeToSend(Object)) to call client libraries or call the server using ItsNat “user defined events” from client JavaScript for instance using a handler registered in a Dojo component.
This applies to COMET too, any pending JavaScript code queued to send to the client is sent when the method CometNotifier.notifyClient() is called.
