I know you stipulated (no Java), but that's not fair. ANYTHING that runs in the browser qualifies. Why not?
I originally disqualified Java (but Javascript/chrome/et al are allowed) and ActiveX because they require downloading and running programs locally. So it blurs the distinction between a "true" web app and a program that you download off the web.
Re-reading APIWar I am not certain if this was the intent of Joel or not (to have Java disqualified). If you can show otherwise (and explain why), I'll buy it.
