Laszlo Systems一个开放源的富客户internet应用(Rich Internet Application)平台，今天宣布OpenLaszlo 3.0版本发布，使用Laszlo平台时，开发者只需编写名为LZX的描述语言（其中整合了XML和javascript），运行在J2EE应用服务器上的Laszlo平台会将其编译成FLASH文件并传输给客户端展示。

OpenLaszlo 3.0 has a number of new features, including:

• SOLO deployment option - which allows the UI to be delivered directly to the user without server interaction
• Unicode support
• Drawing API - an API which enables the creation of circles, ovals, fills and lines and provides the foundation for charting and graphing components
• Dynamic libraries - to add flexibility and reduce the startup time involved with OpenLaszlo
• Performance optimizations to take advantage of the capabilities of Flash 6 and 7
• A new name, from Laszlo Presentation Server to OpenLaszlo, to underscore the open source license covering the OpenLaszlo project

Laszlo has been used for application interfaces as a replacement for straight HTML applications. A number of new technologies such as Ajax are competing in the same space.

其他：
IBM AlphaWorks发布了Laszlo的Eclipse插件，提供了创建、编辑、调试和测试基于LZX声明标记语言的应用程序的IDE 等。参考：http://blog.csdn.net/chenyun2000/archive/2004/11/28/197187.aspx
