wap serializer name change?
Hi All,
Very low priority, but shouldn't the name for the WML serializer be 'wml' and
not 'wap'?
<map:serializer name="wap" mime-type="text/vnd.wap.wml"
src="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.XMLSerializer">
<doctype-public>-//WAPFORUM//DTD WML 1.1//EN</doctype-public>
<doctype-system>http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/wml_1.1.xml</doctype-system>
<encoding>ASCII</encoding>
<omit-xml-declaration>yes</omit-xml-declaration>
</map:serializer>
Each of the other serializers is named after the content type it produces
(HTML, VRML, XML ...), but WAP (wireless access protocol) is a transport and
not a content type?
E.g. WAP is to WML what HTTP is to HTML.
I can submit a 2 byte patch if you like ;)
Best Regards,
Chris

Ah, damn, you're right. Sorry people, this ADSL is so cool that I'm
missing some sleep (I'm installing a bunch of stuff on Federico's
machine in London) :)

Yes, go for it.

Not exactly... "wap" is just a name of component in the sample
sitemap.xmap. If you change this, you introduce backward
incompatibilities with _previous versions of the samples_, not with
cocoon itself - all applications would work as before.

I would just rename it and make a note in changes.xml

You are right. I wrote this when almost nobody knew what WML was but WAP
was starting to appear. Today is common knowledge for anybody that
worked with it.
Anyway, it's back incompatible. So I'd suggest having *both*, deprecate
it and remove it on Cocoon 2.1 or later.
What do you guys think? anyway, is this really necessary?

Hm, thats true...

Might break some installations... but I give my
+1
for consistency. (Although I'm sure it will be
a bit more than 2 bytes ;)
