At the GT we had talks with several people about how much the decision of last year, to make Cocoon Forms the mainstream forms library, was a good idea.
I'd just like to share this with you guys here, as I think it has made a big difference to the project, and applying it to other "grey areas" of Cocoon might help as well (I'm not thinking of any such grey area ATM, but others might see some).
A year ago we decided to bet the farm on Cocoon Forms as the mainstream way of doing forms, and now after one year we see many positive effects: people know what to use if they're not sure, we know where to put our efforts, and yet this hasn't prevented people from doing forms in other ways if they like, as the Chaeron success story at the GT has shown.
So I think "mainstreaming" the tools and technologies that we consider the most appropriate "in general" is a Good Thing, and at the same time we must not put any barriers for people to do things differently if they like - as long as *they* do the required work.
So: keep it up!
