In the future more and more additions to MMBase
will be accompanied by builders and data to be
able to use them. It is an argument often heard
when someone introduces a new addition to MMBase
"This can't make it to the core cause it also
introduces new builders".

Why should we not introduce cloud context
security as the default security for the 1.8
release? We could adopt the strategy, like
changes to api's, that with every major release
there can be changes in the default builders."

Andr�, is it not possible to devise install options, so that variations can
be applied by the target developer?  In this instance, builders would be a
suitable way of introducing options.  Downloading extensions to mmbase
seperately is prohibitive in the mind of a new developer.  It also means
that "mmbase" is the sum of all of it's parts, not just a core with added
options.  It also means that testing mmbase would include all of the
applications installed as well.
