 * OpenAjax interface

 * 
 * The following interface is proposed to be used when declaring objects and functions in a javascript file. 
 * This is the start of a proposal (RFC) for the OpenAjax Alliance (http://www.openajax.org/) to 
 * demonstrate how different frameworks could interoperate. 
 * 
 * A javascript source file must declare the resource it provides and the other resources it depends on. 
 * A 'resource' is to be considered abstract, it can be another file (javascript, css, html, image) or even a directory. 
 * 
 * A resourceId is the unique identifier of a resource, more information about the resource can be found (but not always necessary) 
 * in the OpenAjax resource registry (i.e. the URI of the resource)
 *
 * Each toolkit is responsible for their own implementation of how they deal with resources. The goal is use this common
 * interface among javascript toolkits so each toolkit can build a dependency tree of resources required by one or more files.
