The point of having a standards committee was to have a single standard that people can innovate around. That's exactly what Nat and Erik have done and I commend them for tackling the issue. That's also what John has done with FuseQ, and I've already expressed my enthusiasm for his solution to multiple issues.
We want a single standard that all core files must support but one that doesn't straight-jacket people from making innovations and improvements. I personally think this is a very good thing. The idea that all good ideas will come from a couple of people is clearly wrong. -----Original Message----- From: Ken Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 06, 2002 3:25 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: cferror OK, so it another "new, unproven hot-fix"? Sounds like we're well on our way to the good 'ol days of multiple versions of FB files floating around.

The only change to the API I saw was changing fusebox.layout to fusebox.content, but I think both work. In simple terms, John just added a way to execute multiple fuseactions with one call. -----Original Message----- From: Lee Borkman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 06, 2002 8:31 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: cferror John, Are you saying that FuseQ does not involve a modified set of core files, and does not involve any extensions to the API? That is certainly not what I understand from reading all the available info, ie the CFNORTH session blurb, which says "FuseQ is a Fusebox 3 compliant set of core files that provide added capabilities to Fusebox." FrontOfQ(), for example, sure looks an API extension. As has been said a few time sbefore, enquiring minds want to know ;-) LeeBB ----- Original Message ----- From: John Quarto-vonTivadar ... the last thing you want to do is to start using some new, unproven hot-fix ... -- again the advantage being that anyone working with FuseQ doesn't have to modify the core file or create new fusebox API variables ... ==^================================================================ This email was sent to: [email protected] EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?bUrFMa.bV0Kx9 Or send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] T O P I C A -- Register now to manage your mail! http://www.topica.com/partner/tag02/register ==^================================================================
