I support this. Maybe there are some users out there who feel 
uncomfortable that we discuss a lot about our fundamentals and the 
things they have based their work on. I think this is the base for 
inventing something new or finding better solutions because this gives 
you the chance of looking at things from a different angle.

I want to say that I like the way how Cocoon works _today_. I really 
like the separation of the declarativ sitemap and the procedural 
controller. I don't think this is clumsy or somethink else and it really 
helps to _understand_ web applications. I admit that it may be 
simpler/shorter to write all your stuff into one ???map but this can't 
be declarativ any more and this would destroy a lot of the 
understanabilty of Cocoon, of course, this is very personal.

IMHO we should focus on _polishing_ the things we have now. We would 
need a bunch of Flowscript components for database access, mailing, 
webservice integration and maybe more, we have to split up Cocoon into 
smaller pieces (I'll set up a proposal for this soon) so that it doesn't 
feel like a monolith any more and that we become more flexible and we 
finally have to work on a reference documentation that gives the user a 
sense of having a complete doc in her hands.

Something that I'm currently missing too, is a well defined roadmap for 
Cocoon 2.2.

The major points IMO are:

  - splitting up Cocoon into smaller pieces (a
    prerequiste for Cocoon Blocks)
  - Virtual Sitemap Components, inheritable views
  - move from ECM to Fortress
  - stable Cocoon Forms
  - complete reference documentation

After agreeing on the things that we want to become part of Cocoon 2.2, 
we should define milestones so that our users have an idea where we want 
to go and when we think we will arive.

Thoughts?

I'm not so clear either on API/SPI ;-)

So what about starting by public/internal? We can split public classes 
in API/SPI later on if we feel the need for this separation.

Yep, preparing a list based on some experiments on my laptop will be the 
first step. I have to admit that I'm not so clear neither at the moment. 
Next week I will invest some time.

Are you preparing a list of classes which would go to spi / api / common
(core) / internal? Or you want to prepare the list after the vote? I'm
not so clear on difference between spi/api, the list might help in
understanding/voting.

Ok, I used the wrong wording : it should be "a VSC defined in a parent 
sitemap has a label that triggers a view inherited from a sitemap 
ancestor of the one where the VSC is declared."

More concretely, considering the sample webapp, this can be the 
"pretty-content" view defined in the root sitemap.xmap, triggered by a 
virtual transformer defined in samples/sitemap.xmap having the "content" 
label, itself being used by a pipeline e.g. in samples/i18n/sitemap.xmap

I don't have a strong opinion about this, but tend to agree with you.

Can't... Can you explain how VSC can use a view? No component currently 
is able to use a view, IIUC.

Or, do you mean, VSC containing view labels? Labels are passive by 
themselves so there is no problem with that - view invoked in a 
(((...)sub)sub)sitemap currently uses labels on a component regardless 
of sitemap where labels were originally defined.

And, for the record, I still think that labels within VSCs are not a 
good idea [1], in my mind VSC has semantics of a *component*, not 
semantics of a syntactic *sugar* [2].

IMO, the only way is to have a strict approach by requiring sources to 
be absolute in VSCs. That means we leave this responsibility to the 
user, and he will get a nice exception with a meaningfull message if 
ever he provides relative URIs to the VSC.

And if ever a sensible approach appears to resolve relative URIs, we can 
then relax the constraints in a backwards compatible way.

Actually, this component already exists in 
o.a.c.environment.internal.EnvironmentStack.EnvironmentChanger.

The sitemap engine can add an additional transformer to the pipeline at 
the beginning of view execution, that will change the environment 
context when SAX events enter the part of the pipeline defined by the 
view (and sends SAX events verbatim to the next component in the pipeline).

Yes, each sitemap has a resolver (EnvironmentChanger) that resolves
relative to this sitemap, so if we pass this into the components
in the view, we are finished.

If you think about it, views do not have any parameters passed to them. 
As a result, all resources which view uses are defined within view 
itself, within sitemap where is is defined, so all view resources must 
be resolved relative to the sitemap where view is defined.

Can we achive this (if view are made inheritable)? Can such a resolver 
be given to the view so it resolves *not* relative to the current 
sitemap, but relative to the view declaration sitemap?

I think more and more that this VSC concept is way too complex. If

how will users ever understand it? Hmmm.

that's the question. If we don't have anything new to publish or the 
repository is in an unstable state it doesn't make sense. My point is 
that we should define goals in a realistic way and we should try to 
reach them.

:-)

Let's rephrase: do you think that M1 should be time-driven, or feature 
driven? If it is time-driven, then yes, you don't have to wait, you can 
release right now (or whenever) whatever is in SVN ;-)

But if it is feature driven, it depends on what features will get 
included into M1, and also on availability of committers. Given my 
perception of availability, I feel like that M1 in less than two month 
is a bit too optimistic.

Either way, we can (or can try to) come up with set of milestones (what 
consitutes which milestone) and document them in roadmap. Something to 
the effect:

M1:
  - Move from ECM to Fortress
M2:
  - Virtual Sitemap Components
M3:
  - Inheritable Views (hmm, where this came from?)
RC:
  - Complete reference documentation

And stable Cocoon Forms can be part of 2.1.7, not necessarily part of 2.2

Don't know. Depends on what people plan to do. I think we shouldn't wait 
to long with a M1 (IMHO December is too long), independently from when 
we plan the final release.

Not sure about others, but it seems like very optimistic plan to me. I'd 
plan to release M1 in December (this year).

I'm currently working on nothink related to 2.2, but I
want to move to Fortress in the next weeks; so this will be
in a M1 whatever date we choose for that.

But I think we shouldn't forget about 2.1.6; merging all the nice
bug fixes we already have in 2.2 into 2.1.x is imho currently 
as important.

Thank you.
The document doesn't contain a scheduled release date for M1. I know 
it's difficult to say when which parts will be ready. But if we 
committers say which parts we are working on and when things will be 
ready we get a sense for a timeline.

I think we should release M1 by the end of September. I plan to propose 
and to do the splitting up of Cocoon into smaller pieces by then.
What do other people plan?

What is a realistic date for the final release? December _this_ year? 
Then we could have M2 in October, RC1 by the end of November and if 
necessary a RC2 before the final 2.2 release.

WDOT?

We have started to discuss the roadmap for 2.2 some time ago and 
the starting point is in this document:
