Felix Meschberger commented on SLING-2853:
------------------------------------------

I have an additional comment on the content structure.

Currently the ResourceCollection is a node and the members are collected in a 
child node "members".

(a) Considering that a ResourceCollection gets more attributes like descriptive 
properties and thumbnail child nodes or the likes, would it make sense to 
reconsider the node structure ?

(b) The properties have been namespaced. Shouldn't the "members" node be 
namespaced, too ?

So, we might get:

  + <collection> # anything but maybe at least nt:hierarchyNode
     + jcr:content # anything; but not nt:hierarchyNode
         - jcr:title # maybe
         +- ....
         + sling:members
              ...

WDYT ?

> Creating a collection of resources has been a use case for a while and there 
> has been no inherent support in SLING for the same.
> This proposal is to add a ResourceCollection interface and implementation 
> that allows creation of collection of resources. 
> Collection is a simple list of members, where each member contains path of 
> resource it refers to. In future, we might need to store additional 
> information with the member, hence following structure is proposed
> N: resourceCollection (nt:unstructured)
>         + P: sling:resourceType
>         + N : members (nt:unstructured)
>             + N: member_res1  > nt:unstructured
>                 + P: path > string, reference to actual resource
>             + N: member_res2  > nt:unstructured
>                 + P: path > string, reference to actual resource
