It's not more confusing then empty components declarations in the sub-sitemaps. How your sitemap writer will know what components are available? Following the logic, all the components must be redefined in the subsitemap. > Actually I don't think it's confusing... there are system components and > custom components... but that's why need the cocoon-blocks soon!

Then this dicussion becomes obsolete... +-0 on moving components back, +-0 on leaving as it is, +10 for blocks. > I was so glad to get the components section out of the sitemap...
