Change default server-side JavaScript extension
-----------------------------------------------
Key: SLING-272
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-272
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Felix Meschberger
Assignee: Felix Meschberger
Fix For: 2.0.0
As discussed on the dev list [1], the server-side file extension for JavaScript
sources should be changed. Currently it is ".js", which is also used to
identify client-side JavaScript to be run in browsers. To prevent collisions in
both server-side script execution support and human recognization, the
server-side file extension should be changed.
Two options are at discussion: .ecma or .es. As .es reminds me of the
two-letter country code of Spain (yes, this a human brain thing, not technical
...), I would actually prefer .ecma. This also leans to wards the official name
of the language ECMAScript.
