No, you are totally right: linotype is *very* inefficient from an algorithmical perspective. In fact, linotype does need a database if we want it to scale. I'm planning to keep an eye on JSR-170 (Repository API) and the Slide implementation for it. right now, linotype is just a proof of concept to show how things can be done quick and dirty and still be rather powerful and useable. Also to show how powerful a few tens of Kb of javascript code spread across teh client and server can be. Also, it's a try to test the darwinistic development principles of "start with the little design as possible": seed first, incrementally improve the system. Will it work? I don't know, but it's worth trying, expecially in a great community like Cocoon's, there is a lot of ecosystem power and plenty of social noise to feed the system and see what happens. -- Stefano.

I'm aware that those parts can't be compiled but I'm completly satisfied if the Cocoon internal caching mechanism works. I'll check why source.getValidity() doesn't work for me with the latest CVS.

I used 2.1-dev-M2. I going to set up a test example using the latest CVS snapshot and report if it works for me. Reinhard

Thank you! If I understand this correctly I get with source.getValidity() the SourceValidity. But if I call e.g. cocoon://blablalba.xml this method returns null. The default pipe is the caching pipe and I use it with ... If I resolve a resource using the file protocol a SourceValidity object is returned. Do I have to change something to get a SourceValidity object returned from a cocoon source? Reinhard
