Pimento is a framework for integrating data and media management and adminstrative functionality like user management into Rich Internet Applications.
The server side will be built on top of popular Java Open Source frameworks like Spring, Hibernate and Lucene. The client side will be a Flex/AIR application as a frontend for administrators and editors as well as an AS3 Client API to integrate the content into your application (Flex or non-Flex). The client will be built on top of Parsley and Cinnamon.
Planning for the initial preview releases has now been finished, development will start soon.
