Since Gears is not being supported further by Google in an effort to push HTML5, we haven't done anything further on this. There was supposed to be a lightweight Java-based thing for more universal compatibility and Java was the only option that has both the client-side universality and the features such as chunking, etc. My hope is that it will be developed at some point and we can share it with the world. But nothing has moved forward so far... @Puma

We need something cross-browser/cross-platform and as of right now some people are reporting issues installing Gears (not sure why) and Gears does not work on Snow Leopard. The same principles apply, it will most likely be written in Java though as every other client-side applet possibility has issues barring it from being an option. Gears was our slimmest and best option. It works great if you have it installed, and the amount of PHP and JavaScript are minimal.
