[IPython-dev] Long awaited for JavaScript refactor

[Brian Granger]

Hi,

I have posted a PR:

https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/1697

that does some long awaited for refactoring of the JavaScript code for
the Notebook.  With this change, it should be possible for JavaScript
widgets to call back into the kernel.  I don't have an example yet but
that is coming.

There are a few PR's that this conflicts with:

https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/1509
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/1417

Because 1697 is such a major change, I would like to merge it first
and then merge 1509/1417.  I think 1697 will also help clean up these
other two PRs.

#1697 has significant potential to break the notebook, so it will need
extensive testing.

Cheers,

Brian
