Given the size of the Dojo downloadables (we are including dojo-src right now), I would prefer a single version per bundle (version). Also, currently we provide /dojo, /dijit and /dojox in the root (which is probably not the best of all choices). I have no preference to whether we include the version number in the path or not. On the one hand it is of course good to see the version available in the path. On the other hand, if we have this version in the path, the scripts have to be adapted on every update. But then, multiple dojo bundles with different bundle versions may be installed at the same time thus providing multiple dojo versions at the same time, provided this is not a problem from the dojo pov. > > [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-535 > > BTW, I hope it's OK to use the term "we", refering to myself as a > contributor in spe :) Hey, Apache projects are all about "we", so this is perfectly OK. In fact, "contribution" is not only about code, it is also about discussing and providing hints, directions, documentation, etc. So, welcome ;-) Regards Felix > > -- Andreas > >
