Deliverables

jio: a small library for input/output abstraction of Javascript applications which can be extended through plugins.
officejs: a productivity suite developed as Single Page Application (SPA) by wrapping existing JQuery UI components with renderjs.
renderjs: a generic widget rendering engine which can be extended through plugins and which can be used to develop frontends for enterprise applications.

Required

UI: JQueryUI and JQuery
Modules: AMD from the CommonJS group using RequireJS - if needed, all JQuery plugins we use must be wrapped as AMD (read this presentation also)
Testing: QUnit (JQuery testing library, read this tutorial)
Background processing: Web Workers
Spreadsheet: JQuery.Sheet (JQuery)
Illustration: SVG Edit (JQuery)
Calendar: JQuery Event Calendar (JQuery)
HTML5 Compatibility: Modernizr
Functional Programming: Underscore.js
Packaging: W3C Widgets should be used to produce packages and as a source of inspiration for our own HTML5 gadgets (i18n, includes, etc.)

RPC: MsgPack only if JSON is too slow
Crypto: Stanford JS Crypto Library
Document Merging: OT module of OpenCoWeb only if no better solution can be found (ie. compatible with offline operation)
Text Processing: Aloha (moving to JQueryUI), elRTE (JQueryUI)
File Browsing: Aloha repository API (moving to JQueryUI), elFinder (JQueryUI)
Testing: FireUnit (by John Resig) since it integrates to FireBug
Mobile: the M-Project (JQuery and JQuery Mobile, European Company, could be interested by collaborating in UNG or SlapOS)
Security: OpenAjax Hub (adopted by OpenSocial and others), Google Caja (adopted by Google and others), Sandbox concept (p. 47 of Zakas), AdSafe (a JSLint powered widget framework from the author of JavaScript: the Good Parts) or read summary here
Graph: WebVisio if it can be open source (check jp)
Presentation: ERP5 RunMyDocs if it can be extracted and refactored
Preference Management: Unhosted cause its design suits well that purpose, although not yet widely adopted
Localization: Globalizer handles l10n and i18n
Coding Style: JQuery Core Coding Style, Nexedi Javascript Naming Conventions or Google Style

Form Builder: JQuery Form Builder (only as an example),
MVC: Backbone.js only if really need MVC (which is not as certain as many people say), JavascriptMVC (read bellow)
Architecture:

Templating: Pure
Listbox: check jqgrid and current jquery ui effort
Browser P2P: Peerscape (by Toni Ruottu), BrowserSocket and Pepper API
Text Editor: Xinha includes a good list of modules and desirable features which show how far an HTML5 editor can go

Learning Javascript (the only language we use for the project)
Javascript Single Page Application Frameworks (the kind of application we develop)
Javascript Templating (we should be able to use multiple engine at the same time, even if we prefer one)
Widget Frameworks (are the future of offline applications on mobile platforms or on the Web and should inspire us)
Javascript P2P provides links to the latest distributed approaches which are browser based
