[lively-kernel] Sencha

[Philip Weaver]

A Google bot continues to unpublish this document - therefore the link below
is broken. The title of this document is Lively (Sponsorship & Funding). So
hopefully you'll be able to find it in the list via
http://tinyurl.com/lively-mockups/

The document originally just had some links in it which Google filters
rejected. So I'm working on just summarizing these links until I sort that
out.

Thanks,
Philip
