Hi Robin, I would like to strongly support your proposal.
But there is one question: will the DSpace community continue to support two UI ? Personally, I prefer JSP to Cocoon but I think that supporting two interfaces on the long term will be unmanageable... How people really using Manakin now evaluate this issue? Are they satisfied? Do they think JSP are easier, simpler, faster? Or they enjoy new useful features with Manakin and are happy with the overall organisation it imposes?
Personally, I still belief "cleaned-up" JSP with a good API to access DSpace objects (designed from Manakin experience), some new JSTL tags, some EL functions would be easier to learn and use than Cocoon. But I did not made the transition (still deriving my work form DSPace 1.4.1): I may be completely wrong!!
Have a nice week-end, Christophe Robin Taylor a écrit :
Hi Mark, I recall a short while ago you commenting on the fact that there had been no clamour from the community for a JSP 2.n based UI, well I would like to start a small scale clamour. Is there any reason why we couldn't include the necessary jar(s) in the daddy pom.xml and the appropriate entries in the web.xml, that would allow those who wished to take advantage of 2.0 features ? I have been making changes to some pages recently and it does my head in having to resort to scripting within the pages.Cheers, Robin.
