Sina K. Heshmati commented on FOR-1059:
---------------------------------------

Please do NOT add these patches as it will affect other Forrest instances using the Dispatcher.

The following is a sample 'pelt-html.panel.xml:'

<forrest:template ...
  <jx:import uri="cocoon://prepare.panels.pelt-html.head"/>
  <forrest:hook name="container">
    <jx:import uri="cocoon://prepare.panels.pelt-html.header"/>
    <forrest:hook name="page">
      <jx:import uri="cocoon://prepare.panels.pelt-html.leftbar"/>
      <jx:import uri="cocoon://prepare.panels.pelt-html.content"/>
    </forrest:hook>
    <jx:import uri="cocoon://prepare.panels.pelt-html.footer"/>
  </forrest:hook>
</forrest:template>

Some Questions
-----------------------
(1) Let's say that a given project does not want to change the views at all, that is no project-specific panels. How can make sure that the one included in the core.themes plugin is used? This way, every instance using the Dispatcher won't be affected.

(2) Should I remove the forrest:hooks from the pelt-html.panel.xml? So as to make it easier ti add project-specific contracts to the existing views.

> It's useful to have reusable panels for each theme [1]. I'm sending the html-pelt theme that's been chunked into different templates.
