Re: Rocket the Super Rabbit

Hi Samuel,

I just skimmed through the code quickly. It's definitely interesting.
I think I would prefer a less decentralized approach, meaning I don't
think that database design and html form generation/handling should be
defined in the same spot. But it's a matter of taste, really.

For the form handling stuff you may also want to check out what's
going on in jala: there's a jala.Form module which I think will be
part of the next major release:
https://opensvn.csie.org/traccgi/jala/wiki/JalaModules/Form
https://opensvn.csie.org/jala/trunk/docs/jala.Form.html
https://opensvn.csie.org/traccgi/jala/ticket/39
I think it may make sense to combine this with what you're doing.

For my part, I'm especially interesteed in the database features you
have in there. Is there any kind of versioning/db evolution support in
there? Support for starting from an existing database? In what
direction, if any, would you like to see this evolve?
