At the architecture summit yesterday we had a conversation about the TitleValue proposal and the vast majority of folks thought it was a great start. Something like 10% of us thought the patch _might_ be a start down the path to Javaify MediaWiki. I was one of the 10%.
We resolved to talk more about the commit before merging it because of the objections of our minority. I felt somewhat vindicated. I slept on it. Now I don't think we made the right choice. I think more discussion is a waste of time and we should just keep moving and try to catch the Javaification if it starts creeping in. The TitleValue proposal is an improvement over what we have now so I figure we should just do it. Is that ok? In the mean time, mostly to humor me, does anyone want to start a list on wiki of some of the Javaification things they are scared of? I promise to contribute some paranoid ramblings which we can debate on the wiki or mailing list.
