Welcome back? :-)
The secretary workbench held up well - svn was speedy, the only slowdown
is when it called out to id.apache.org for new account requests.
I didn't have as much opportunity as I would have liked to work on the
new secmail tool. Changes like the above will be much easier to make
since the logic to provide a specific function will be all in one place.
The flow will be different, and hopefully we can find a middle ground
that works for you.
The original design point was that you could do multiple partial actions
and commit a bunch of changes all at once. Neither of us ended up using
it that way - we would do and commit one logical change. The advantage
to the previous way is that the workbench would show you the results of
partial changes, show you what it would be about to do, and show you as
it was doing it. The downside of that approach is that adding a new
function would often require updating multiple places, and some of those
changes could affect other (seemingly unrelated) functions. That mades
it harder to add new functions or even small changes.
