I've always wondered with lenya, why did you choose to implement all backend
storage as xml files?
for simplicity ;-)
well, at the time I have started originally (no-one but myself having to
rely on it ;-) I didn't have any need for queries. Today it's a bit
different, but more about that further down ...
I've been doing some work on making database backends
for users, groups etc.
that would be one nice usecase for queries
Before I went any further I wanted to find out
straight from the horses mouth what you believe the advantages are of the
current xml file based system.
I still like the FS approach very much, but yes it's not sufficient
for many usecases and hence I think we need to change ...
Where is lenya 1.4 going with this? Will any of it's data storage be moved
from File IO to something else?
by introducing JCR and using a FS persistence manager one can
still have a certain transperancy and simplicity, whereas I think
it would be nice if one could save "documents" with a human readable
path instead of UUIDs (as for instance with Jackrabbit), but I also
see the need for UUIDs re persistent linking, etc.
