[Bese-devel] Server pushing

[Waldo Rubinstein]

Like I said, I haven't done it in UCW. Maybe someone else can comment.

However, I would try doing something as simple as render a message  
page (with :metaclass standard-component-class), call your task, and  
have that task 'answer-component.

Maybe that's not the correct approach, but I would try going that  
route or look along that route. Anyone else care to comment?
