Benoit Chesneau commented on COUCHDB-1954:
------------------------------------------
about the
1. I am not sure/. Imo if we go to a major release, we could return a 404 pages
describing where to find such script. Eventually I could add in erica a macro
that replace such links.
Slightly off-topic but I disagree with [~kxepal] here. Erica can and will be
used for more. Providing its own way to extend, inherit, plug app. Doing it
differently from a simple dependency system that's all. But he's right one one
point. AT the beginning and its simples form erica/couchapp are just tool to
create and edit docs/ddoc from the file system.
2. What about simply put the HTTP API to `/couchdb` and the UI to `/ui` or `/`
. So you keep the API separated from any extensions you can add later or
sooner. I would keep the `/` alone so e can finally add this CAPABILITY system
we talk sometimes ago. (a way to discover links, installed resources, version
of the API supported) ... Also I would start to version the API.
3. Maybe we could have a way to redirect the obvious and return a detailled 404
for the others?

> At some point Fauxton will replace Futon. There are a few questions that we
> should clarify before we get there:
> 1. what happens to resources like jquery.js and jquery.couch.js that are
> currently in well-known places where CouchApps depend on them?
> 2. there are several other tickets regarding serving a human readable HTML
> page on `/` if the client is clearly a browser. (so people don’t have to type
> the `/_utils` manually, how does that play into rolling out Fauxton?
> 3. cool URLs don’t change: what happens to links into Futon that no longer
> work in Fauxton that might be coming in from the docs and other tutorials,
> including people’s in-house documentation?
