Philipp Bracher commented on MAGNOLIA-761:
------------------------------------------

I think it will take time to consolidate both. Therfore I propose to use the 
system as it is (with my changes and your packaging module) for the next relase.

Modules: for magnolia / modules developers

Packages: for templaters, system administrators, ...

I think both can provit from each other if we handle it clever enough. 

the module mechanism brings:
- lifecycle
- content is tied together
- descriptor
- servlet registration
- repository registration
- for developing core components

The packaging brings:
- interface for creation & administration of packages
- versions
- deploy /undeploy
- no restart
- for developing projects

Perhaps we should meet (virtual or real) after the next release to consolidate 
this

> We have done the major step for modularizing magnolia. I would like go a step 
> further before we release 3.0.
> Goal
> ----
> - tie everything together (one jar per module)
> - slim webapp (only stuff which an enduser concerns about: templates, css)
> - easier development process
> Changes
> -------
> A) Additional Bootstrap
> - A module has a bootstrap dir in the resources (during installation the 
> content get's imported)
> B) Templates , .. per module
> - Each module configuration has a dialog, paragraph, templates config 
> (instead of registering them in the templating module)
> - The current templating module is renamed to samples
> C) remove admindocroot and admintemplates
> - only the template and paragraph jsps and resources are extracted from the 
> jar and written to the filesystem
> - the resources used in the admin interface are served by the resource servlet
> - NO jsps for the admin-interface (see below)
> D) New module definition no longer in the manifest file
> - the definition is in an xml file META-INF/magnolia/xxx.xml
> --> during development one has not always a proper jar (with manifest)
> E) subdir per module
> - docroot/module
> - templates/module
> - if a new version is installed the dirs get rewritten completely 
> NO JSP in the admin interfaces
> ______________________________
> In future we will use JSF and FreeMarker. As a mid-step I would like to 
> change the dialogpages (not the dialogs). We call them newly pages. The 
> default page uses a template named like the classname. With this we can avoid 
> the jsps in admintemplates. The module register it's pages (like we do 
> currently for trees, ...) and a main servlet processes this pages.
