Besides the new skin in 0.8 I'd like to start working on Roundcube Framework. It means Roundcube will provide a set of classes that can be used by other projects. Now, rcube_imap_generic class is known as one of the best IMAP handling classes, but there are people that would like to use something more abstract i.e. rcube_imap class. This is not simple now because of its dependencies.
So, here are some steps I want to make: - create abstract rcube_storage class and build rcube_imap as rcube_storage implementation (driver) - this is to allow creation of other drivers, e.g. SQL-based, POP3, - exclude mime related functions from rcube_imap into new rcube_mime class, - split main.inc and rcube_shared.inc functions into a few classes: rcube_converter, rcube_ui, rcube_utils and maybe some into existing classes, - create rcube_framework class, that can be a parent for rcmail class, - framework-related changes to existing classes, e.g. - get rid of $rcmail object usage in classes, - can we exclude rcube_user class? - make output/html/template classes optional, - unify codestyle according to our CS ruleset -- Aleksander 'A.L.E.C' Machniak LAN Management System Developer [http://lms.org.pl] Roundcube Webmail Developer [http://roundcube.net] --------------------------------------------------- PGP: 19359DC1 @@ GG: 2275252 @@ WWW: http://alec.pl _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/dev/ BT/8f4f07cd
