Hi devs,
I see that we keep adding stuff regularly to oldcore and the reason is "my code
depends on oldcore so I cannot depend on oldcore in new modules".
First, this is not completely true. We have several modules that already depend
on oldcore.
Also we cannot wait indefinitely that the new model magically appears (that
won't happen… :)).
I think it's fine to depend on oldcore when a new module requires to use the
model and when the bridge (DAB) is not enough. However we need to be careful
about one thing: that oldcore itself doesn't use that new module. So sometimes
it will mean extracting stuff from oldcore into a separate module so that it
can use the other new module ;)
Personally I now think we need to continue splitting oldcore and it's more
important that we create new modules for specific domains, even if they use old
code and even if they use the com.xpn namespace when moving oldcode) than keep
everything as it is and make oldcore grow fatter…
Of course sometimes it may just be too complex but at least we should consider
it and when possible create new modules depending on oldcore.
WDYT?
Thanks

Totally agree, +1.
