Nothing will happen in 1.0. An alternative to @validate might be provided in 1.1. Ben said he'll outline a new roadmap for Pylons soon after 1.0 is released. We've generally decided to keep FormEncode because of its wide flexibility (it can validate anything, and doesn't have HTML-centric vocabulary), so whatever we choose would have to work with it. Some people have written standalone pieces of @validate which could be used inside actions or combined in a decorator, so we'd have to evaluate those. If you have any specific ideas, you can add them to the "Split up @validate" ticket. -- Mike Orr <sluggos...@gmail.com> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-devel" group.
