Eric,

If the plan is to make Turbine a leaner framework using fulcrum as a collection of components which work together to build web apps, I think it makes sense to leave Intake as a fulcrum component.

Personally, I don't use Intake and would be much happier not having to have it as part of Turbine.

While I haven't actually ripped it all out and moved it into Fulcrum, I'm not using Velocity, the AssemblerBroker or the Pull services either in my latest Turbine based applications. So the move to a leaner Turbine with more choice of fulcrum components is one that I would favour and I think the work Siegfried has done recently on service location is a great step forward.

Regards,

Peter

I dug a bit more, and the only really big reason to keep Intake as a fulcrum component is that Scarab, which is built on Fulcrum and T3, has about a zillion lines (I think) of code that expects Fulcrum to be org.apache.fulcrum... I'll look a bit more and see.

1) Move parser classes to Fulcrum-Parsers, and rejuvenate that  project.
2) Move parser classes to a seperate Turbine sub component, and let that build and have both Turbine and Intake depend on that. 3) Move Intake back into the Turbine project as a sub component, and not have it be a Fulcrum component, but still deal with 1 or 2.


I'd go for 3) at the moment. Though Intake may be a valuable standalone component, it is very much Turbine centric right now.

IMHO it is always possible to duplicate the few relevant classes in both code trees. Their code is fairly static anyway, so it's not a big maintenance issue.

Bye, Thomas.
