Hi,
I've been using intake for the last 6 months or so and well I'm not a great
fan of it. For me in theory its a good idea but in practice its overly
complex for what should be a relatively simple problem. Within the app I
work on it has become quite diffcult. When the pages become complex and more
pages are needed, and there happens to be an error, debugging and finding
that error I find is more difficult than it need necessarily be.

Personally I prefer RegExp handlers to parse form information and return
error messages or not as the case maybe. I think it avoids the forms
themselves becoming unecessarily cluttered and of of course to avoid the
action classes themselves becoming unmanageable monoliths, extract code to
do the parsing into another class.

My chosen RegExp handler is Oro,
Regards
James

Subject: are there alternatives to Intake?


I'm building an application with turbine that doesn't use Torque.  I'm
gathering from traffic on this list that if I'm not using Torque, I
can't use Intake.

So are there alternatives?
