I think we shouldn't ship Javaflow as block because this gives our user base the wrong impression. I'd like to see it in scratchpad and as soon as it is stable (community, technology) it should become part of Cocoon core. BTW, this is the reason why we have a separate scratchpad block! Speaking in Cocoon 2.2 (3.0) semantics, it should be IMO (as the different environments, the Javascript-Flowinterpreter, ...?) in the middle between blocks and core. Avoiding balkanization I'm -1 on other implementation than JS and Java in the Cocoon CVS. But this shouldn't prevent people to provide them or to provide e.g. Groovy examples somewhere else. But please not in our CVS ... things are complicated and messed up enough ... -- Reinhard

Okay here another vote(and I wait more than 24h) Move java into scratchpad? [ ] Move it into scratchpad [x] Leave it where it is [ ] Rename it to ___ Hiding anything in scratchpad does not help anything IMO. The block is marked unstable and this should give the right perception. scratchpad = big mess It's good for single classes try-outs where a block does not make sense. But blocks are much more structured - which is good IMO. cheers -- Torsten

In any case, though, having those blocks excluded by default might boost us to take the unstable tag out.

I have the same view, the current block intrastructure is the only way to make the build modular. Move all things, which are unstable, in one scratchpad-block doesn't help anyone. I can see Carsten's POV, and understand the fear that we get too much block during the time. But I think it's more the time to talk about to cut the CVS repository into cocoon-blocks and cocoon-core, which means a really small and slim core with the components, which are nessecary for a bootstrap system. Perhaps this time with svn ;-) Stephan.

That seems to be more-or-less the real way to handle this: put it in a block, but have the block not included in the build by default. That way, someone new to Cocoon isn't going to stumble across it by accident. More-over if they've got to go into the blocks.properties file (don't see the need for an extra prosperities file?) to add the block back into Cocoon it is easy to have a big comment very visible that says experimental. IOW, by forcing the user to modify the properties file you make it obvious the block is experimental...
