Danny,

[please note: I'm posting the reply on james-dev@]

I'm beginning to think that we need to organize the James v3 discussion, and
focus on one thing at a time until we have a consensus on the design.  Then
we can put them design notes into the status file, and people can pick
things to work on confident that there is a consensus on the overall
approach.

Now ... with respect to Mail and User attributes, Serge has indicated that
he'd like to be able to store serialized objects.  I have some reasons for
agreeing with him, such as being able to store proxy objects in the store.

I agree that they impact store design.  Stores are one of the things that I
think really need to be reconsidered from multiple perspectives.

I've been wondering about Mail attributes, and how they would impact
repositories.

I thought that we should limit attributes to being Strings, is there any
_real_ need to do more?
