I agree that entry and entryRef should not both exist. They were designed to allow
full local definition of entreis and references to the registry. If we only allow
full definition in the registry and references in the site markup, we don't need 
anymore the <entry name="xxx"> in PSML, only in the registry markup.

So actually, we have:

in PSML: <entry ref="xxx"></entry>
in registry <entry name="xxx"><classname>xxxx</classname></entry>

Yeah a lot, but I started to work off-line last week-end and this week-end I was 
still off-line to work so synchronising with the current CVS is real pain.
Also since I did some major API rework, I *KNOW* that as soon as I start committing 
code, I'll break quite a lot of things. I want to keep the main CVS working for new
users checkout so I think I'll create a new branch to land the changes, resolve the
conflicts and then port it to the main one. OK, for you ?
