I'll be there as well,

KRavEN will be there as well (the other Ext JS admin)
he is usually online at 1300 (Amsterdam/Paris  time = CEST)

Is everyone aware of the proposals at:
http://trac.symfony-project.org/wiki/Symfony12AdminGenerator

I don't know if everyone is aware they talk about two (related) things
1. the admin generator
2. the theme

I think the admin generator alone is only about capabilities/
possibilites you have, like:
- being able to select foreign-values
it will be related to how to implement things for propel and for
doctrine

the theme is about much more, like:
- representation (of course)
- how to handle read-only credentials (although this could be depended
on the capabilities of the admin generator)
- enabling/disabling columns by the user
- reordering (possibly on multiple columns)
adding hooks in a theme is pretty hard I think, but I agree about the
problem of missing updates/fixes

I think it is also good to rethink about custom-methods and partials.
In my vision partials are at the moment used for example to combine
two fields ( _fullname = firstname + lastname) while partials should
be used for representation, custom-methods should be about combining
fields.

I also see some discussion about the sf1.1-forms way and the Yaml-way.
I myself am a big fan of Yaml, but haven't got any experience with the
Sf1.1Form. The thing I like about yaml is it allows you to define
everything step by step, allowing rapid prototyping. First define some
columns you want to see, after that rename some labels, after that you
van reorder things. Fast and easy. And the capabilities are enormous,
take a look at my live-demo for that (for now firefox recommended)
http://tejohnston.dynora.eu/ (login with admin admin) all grids and
forms have been defined by yaml, almost none custom code.


Cheers
Leon
