Hi, 

While preparing for a workshop on expressions I wonder how to explain
why some variables are referenced with the $ sign (like $geometry) while
other variables start with the @ sign, like @row_number, @layer_name. 

I know that it has historical reasons and that variables with the @ sign
are newer and are implemented using a different technology. 

But are there plans to get rid of the old $ sign notation and move
everything to the @ sign notation? 

Just wonder how I best explain this to the participants of the workshop.


Thanks for your reply, 

Andreas
