Valid point - how is that different from today?
If our designer chnaged the file structure layout of the templates
we'd be screwed. Actually we would not let her do it.
While it's great that designer and developer don't trip over each
other in Tapestry land there has to be *some* mutual understanding on
these issues before something flies over the fence!

I've been looking around trying to mesh two parts of Tapestry and T5
comments together - hopefully I'm missing something somewhere.
A stated design of T5 is the negation of page and jwc files -
Annotations rule the day.
With that in mind, where is the connection from HTML to Java? Or will
there only be a connection from Java to HTML?
Scenario:
Designer mocks up a site with the following structure:
index.html
blah.html
secure/
index.html
account.html
This is then approved and thrown over the wall to the developers to
integrate into their "back end" with the following package structure:
com.company.tapestry
com.company.tapestry.pages
com.company.tapestry.secure
.
.
.
- From what I've gleaned from the T5 discussions, after taking into
account "no more page files" and "no more jwc files", I don't see how
the designer could change the layout of the HTML without a recompile of
the Java code to support the changes. With XML, it would require changes
to configuration, but without them? Am I missing something obvious? Or
is this the "reduce flexibility" that mandates "you start with this
structure, we map it to package structure appended to your stated
'starting point' - period."? For example:
.application
<meta page-classes = "com.company.tapestry"/>
index.html == com.company.tapestry.Index
blah.html == com.company.tapestry.Blah
secure/
index.html == com.company.tapestry.secure.Index
account.html == com.company.tapestry.secure.Account
[curious to know if this is the plan, or if it's the Java annotations
defining the mapping]
