[Ssc-dev] oboe.js

[David Oliver]

I'm pretty out of date on modern Javascript for the client, but it appears
this library solves a small but very useful problem in web apps that have
little inherent client form or data, and rely on the server to provide that
data "in the moment" to a rich renderer in the client (written in
Javascript).

This library seems idea for a "database rows" type application, or (as
shown in the examples) a "data points on a map" application.  The use of
"streaming" (not sure I like the term) is useful since the empty
application is filled (and visualized) gradually instead of the
visualization occurring only when all the server-provided data is
downloaded.

That this is a small library also helps since part of the problem is the
libraries like JQuery are so huge they cause massive delays in page loading
in and of themselves.
