[vote] scope of 1.4

i'd like us to vote on the scope of 1.4 as described in these 2 documents:

http://wiki.apache.org/lenya/ProjectPlanning14
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/lenya-dev/200502.mbox/%3c4210086E.7060207@apache.org%3e

this means:

- XmlHttp sitetree               (almost complete)
- publication templating         (complete)
- flow based usecase framework   (complete)
- new publication API            (complete)
- new menu implementation        (complete)
- replace all actions / XSP with the usecase framework (almost complete)

plus the various loose ends from the wiki page, but no JCR.

here is my +1

agreed. this is in line with our plans for repository integration:

http://wiki.apache.org/lenya/ProposalRepository

the sitetree hack, however, is not.

the important thing is to have the Lenya protocol in place everywhere.

OK, I misunderstood you, sorry for overreacting.
In fact I very much appreciate you joining the 1.4 parade :)

As regards JCR & 1.4, there does appear to be consensus that the scope 
of 1.4 includes the basis for enabling JCR (this basis is Lenya's new 
content abstraction layer), but Lenya 1.4.0 need not necessarily provide 
JCR.

I would give my +1 to JCR in 1.4 if it follows Andreas' polymorphic 
approach or Wolfgang's top-down approach (From my understanding, both 
approaches are the same and are current goals in the 1.4 release).

JCR integration is something that I am very interested in, and am 
looking forward to.

I would hate to see the current stability of 1.4 thrown out the door by 
introducing JCR in the bottom-up approach that Wolfgang described.  I 
don't know about others, but this would certainly disrupt my plans for 
lenya 1.4.

Publication templating and the 1.4 usecase model are the reasons that I 
am planning on rolling with 1.4 for a large scale rollout.  I am 
assuming that moving my publications to JCR will be relatively painless.

I am not saying I am the only interested in, but the only one voting +1 
to insert JCR right now, or did miscount something?

see my other emails re blog publication using lenya:// within the sitemap to
actually use the RepositoryLayer universally within Lenya.

As I tried to explain yesterday, we have been following a top-down 
approach and have in fact already spent a lot of development time 
towards making Lenya compatible with an alternative backend such as JCR. 
You might recall, for example, the long discussions concerning the 
changes in the document creation API, which were triggered by the work 
towards a repository. So not only is that kind of work non-trivial, but 
also requires perseverance. So saying you are the only one interested in 
JCR work is, quite frankly, incomprehensible to me. What is true is that 
I don't have time right at this moment to continue this work; but having 
spent quite a bit of time on actually *working* towards this goal in the 
Lenya core, it's quite strange to hear someone claiming they are the 
only one interested in it.

I would really prefer to discuss the issue of JCR integration at a 
technical level. If you disagree with the approach followed so far, 
please say why, and how exactly you propose to address the issues 
raised, at a design+technical level.

if the lightweight interface

org/apache/lenya/cms/cocoon/source/RepositorySource.java

 is really used "universally" within Lenya then this would definitely 
help and
simplify JCR integration a lot.

it seems to me that consensus is being found, because it seems to me that
I am the only one who wants JCR integration. But I need some more time
to play a bit with the Lenya RepositorySource to make up my mind and place
my vote re the scope

I wouldn't exclude the JCR option, see below.

I believe we should add

"- new lightweight repository; repository abstraction layer (almost 
complete)"

to the scope. It is already in the existing alpha release, and is the 
abstraction which will eventually allow us (or a custom implementer) to 
integrate Lenya + JCR (see previous mail for details)

IMHO if it is made clear that this feature is a part of 1.4, we will be 
able to reach a consensus regarding the scope of 1.4
