ULC (www.canoo.com/ulc) is pure Java based rich thin client frame work for J2EE applications. It provides server side widgets with API exactly similar to Swing. ULC apps run in any std J2EE container (servlet or EJB). Client is thin and universal (350 KB of Java) and requires JRE 1.2 or higher on the desktop. There is a Visual Builder plug-in available for IBM Websphere Studio and soon for Eclipse. Developers can use any IDE to program with ULC classes.

I am surprised to see that the author didn''t mention one of the biggest problem I''ve seen while working with droplets platform. That''s having to restart the server every time the code is modified. Imagine a code-build-test cycle where one has to restart the server every time.
Having worked with mostly J2EE servers with hot-deployment capability, this is the biggest problem I face.
