- Is ist planned to switch fortress to the new meta framework once it is ready?
yes
- Is the avalon meta framework ready for broadening its scope beyond the merlin container?
yes
- Is there a reason why fortress uses a different way to collect the meta-informations? Or is it just historical evolution?
the latter
- Is there already meta information defined based on avalon meta for the cornerstone components or plans to do so?
not sure. I think its there, if not I'm sure people are planning to add it (like you ;)
- Is Fortress replacable by merlin? From the documentation i got that merlin is the sucessor of phoenix, but not suited for a embedded servlet environment like fortress. Is this correct?
merlin can be embedded (I believe there's some examples showing how), but its a lot 'heavier' than fortress and doesn't support all the semantics fortress does support. The answer to this question is in constant flux though. I prefer fortress for a servlet environment, other people are known to prefer merlin.
Or was this already discussed on the mailing list? I searched a bit but found not much concerning fortress and cornerstone. If i know your plans i can see where i can help.
development plans are usually on the development list :D
Berin Loritsch is, I believe, working on the meta materials in fortress. Hop over on the dev list and see what needs doing; I'm sure your help will be most welcome :D
cheers!
