Re: Re: Cocoon/Slide Impl Recapitulation and Wishlist

  I am sorry to say that perhaps my last email was a
bit preemptive.  I looked more into the
SourceMultiAction class of cocoon and realized that is
was calling the source implementation written for
slide.  This class, SlideSource.java appears to carry
out all the desired actions.  The MultiSourceAction
gets a handle of the SlideSource through the
SourceResolver class and then calls this Source to
implement its actions.  I have to look more into the
SldieSource class to understand why versioning, etc.
is not working right now.  I am not sure if it is just
still in early stage or if my config is somehow
lacking.  It seems that my config is in order.  Either
way, I think there is great potential here...I will
fill all in on my findings in this area.

My wish list for all this is that the revision
controls, ACL, locking capabilities of slide are used
for Lenya/Wyona since they seem to be very mature. 
Again it makes no sense to put effort into rewriting
all these tools when they are freely available.  This
way one could use more than WYSIWYG editors like
XMLSpy, OpenOffice, etc in order to manage distributed
content.  Also, it would be great if the content store
was WEBDAV and DELTA-V conformant.  Moreover,
Wyona/Lenya could focus more on higher end CMS
functions (i.e. the scheduler, entity-based workflow)
all while cleaning the class library.  Again,
questions, comments appreciated.
