Which is a natural concern, with all the different web parts and scripts that’s being injected SharePoint portals these days. To end Monday off (in my neck of the woods anyway), I thought I’d make a quick post on what I do in my projects.

One of the basic features missing in SharePoint 2007 has for me been the possibility of picking things up, taking them to another location, and dropping them into place. Be that files, folders, tasks or whatnot – I’ve wanted to pull them about. It’s no joke that file copy / move in default SharePoint is as fun as watching grass grow. Even with webdav, it’s nowhere near as pleasant as it should have been.

On the spot in this post is the lambda library. Simply put, a lambda here means an expression with placeholders for parameters to come. As such, it’s not unlike the closures we already have in javascript, but this does up the stakes a little bit.

I’m about to release a few more open source SharePoint solutions, including a core javascript library feature. The CoreJS is a required feature for the hierarchical navigation component, which will also be properly released as OSS on CodePlex before long.
