The reasoning sounds fine. I won't comment further until we hear Thorsten's view. The problem with the plugin approach is that there is too much extra weight of configuration files, e.g. skinconf.xml forrest.properties and other templates and default config, just to show one doc. That is probably an orthoganal issue. We need to solve it for plugins too. It is also creating a maintenance problem for the Forrest project. Synchronising and updating those is hell. At one stage, Reinhard did some nice experiments at Cocoon with centralised config for various projects. Probably still in cocoon-trunk. -David
