Hmm, in 0.8 we will not have the traditional skins that we have right
now. They become views based on contracts.
I hope that's not what we are going to tell our users =-)
This contracts can be written the way you just suggested. Create a default copyright contract that can be used apache wide.
....BUT I would not suggest to keep it in the skinconf. The skinconf is to inflexible due to the fact that it is configuring the WHOLE site and not only on a per page/document base. What would you do when you have a one page or a couple of pages with different copyright notices?
This is part of the other thread, the per-page based properties. Skinconf should be only the default for each section or page, that can overried it's values, I agree.
I think I have to stop here on this, as one should now mix that thread with this conclusion and come to a unified design, and I'm too tired.
Wanna try? :-)
