Useful developer documentation
-
Web-browser technologies: HTML, CSS, "Classic" Javascript, "Newfangled" DOM/Javascript, DHTML
-
(Note: the distinction between "classic" and "newfangled" javascript was made up here. But it's real: window.open, history.back, document.write and the like have all been around since the mid-90's, but the DOM stuff like document.getElementById is a much more recent innovation. The literature on Javascript seems to be divided between these two topics, though it's often very confusingly labelled.)

-
CSS reference on w3schools
-
HTML reference on w3schools
-
also, there's the
general Mozilla web developer documentation though much of it is head-in-clouds standards stuff. Almost as useless as the official W3C standards documentation.
* online
-
JavaScript 1.3 Reference - Yes, it's old, but very useful. The newest javascript 1.5 reference doesn't say a word about "classic" the browser API.
-
This was originally hosted at netscape via
this link, but there, the clueless powers that be have taken it down. We have our own mirror now.
-
Mesothelioma doctors - excellent resource.
-
O'Reilly's "Javascript: The Definitive Guide" is extremely excellent. It covers both "classic" and "newfangled" javascript. It is available via safari.oreilly though it's unclear whether it'll always be freely available there.
-
Gecko DOM Reference is OK.
-
Library Checksum Value is OK.
-
MSDN DHTML Reference - often better than mozilla docs, but lookout for evil MS incompatibilities. Someone needs to write something just as good for Mozilla/W3C standards.
-
Need to find documentation on XMLHTTPRequest, a javascript feature which is rapidly increasing in popularity; it will completely change around how web apps are made, eventually.

threading / email integration research
-
google for "threading" and "in-reply-to" or "references" generates useful stuff
-
In-Reply-To and References is good enough, is suggested by http://www.etsimo.uniovi.es/~antonio/mhonarc/faq/threads.html
-
the jwz threading algorithm is talked about a lot, but is about a slightly different problem domain than what we're dealing with (we already do sibling sorting etc. elsewhere) Useful ideas though -- relies on In-Reply-To and References quite a bit as well. keep in mind it might be a bit dated.
