+DojoX Timing
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Version 0.1.0
+Release date: 08/08/2007
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Project state:
+experimental
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Credits
+ Tom Trenka (ttrenka AT gmail.com): original Timer, Streamer, Thread and ThreadPool
+ Wolfram Kriesing (http://wolfram.kriesing.de/blog/): Sequence
+ Jonathan Bond-Caron (jbondc AT gmail.com): port of Timer and Streamer

+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Project description
+
+DojoX Timing is a project that deals with any kind of advanced use of timing
+constructs. The central object, dojox.timing.Timer (included by default), is
+a simple object that fires a callback on each tick of the timer, as well as
+when starting or stopping it. The interval of each tick is settable, but the
+default is 1 second--useful for driving something such as a clock.
+
+dojox.timing.Streamer is an object designed to facilitate streaming/buffer-type
+scenarios; it takes an input and an output function, will execute the output
+function onTick, and run the input function when the internal buffer gets
+beneath a certain threshold of items. This can be useful for something timed--
+such as updating a data plot at every N interval, and getting new data from
+a source when there's less than X data points in the internal buffer (think
+real-time data updating).
+
+dojox.timing.Sequencer is an object, similar to Streamer, that will allow you
+to set up a set of functions to be executed in a specific order, at specific
+intervals.
+
+The DojoX Timing ThreadPool is a port from the original implementation in the
+f(m) library. It allows a user to feed a set of callback functions (wrapped
+in a Thread constructor) to a pool for background processing.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Dependencies:
+
+DojoX Timing only relies on the Dojo Base.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Documentation
+
+TBD.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Installation instructions
+
+Grab the following from the Dojo SVN Repository:
+http://svn.dojotoolkit.org/var/src/dojo/dojox/trunk/timing.js
+http://svn.dojotoolkit.org/var/src/dojo/dojox/trunk/timing/*
+
+Install into the following directory structure:
+/dojox/timing.js
+/dojox/timing/
+
+...which should be at the same level as your Dojo checkout.
