Olivier Louvignes commented on CB-84:
-------------------------------------

Will this node/socket.io magic will still be available as a OSX standalone? Does not see trace of it in https://github.com/apache/incubator-cordova-weinre

> This is particularly good if we can take advantage of native sockets on ios and / or there is a socket plugin for phonegap

> An open investigation item I have for socket.io is how they do their cross-site i/o. Not sure if they depend on CORS or can use some other mechanism. If they can support cross-site i/o for iOS 3.1.x, it would mean we could actually support iOS 3.1.x in weinre, which we can't today. Same with some older versions of webOS.
> I think converting to socket.io would be relatively straight-forward, but I wasn't particularly happy with the Java server impls I saw floating around. At this point, moving to socket.io would also likely mean moving to node for the server piece at the same time.
> *davejohnson commented June 23, 2011*
> agreed. I think socket.io and node go hand in hand.
