There is now more information in the ticket referenced above. The terminology has changed. We should should use the term "extension" instead of "plug-in" in order to avoid confusion with the existing plug-in system. We have decided to split the implementation in three parts: 1. Create the required infrastructure. This is what ticket 436 is about. 2. Implement a few extension points in the web client. This would cover the place were the "Launch MeV" button is located and a few other places. This is/will be described in ticket 933: http://base.thep.lu.se/ticket/933 3. Re-implement the "Launch MeV" functionality as an extension and remove it from the core distribution. This is described in ticket 932: http://base.thep.lu.se/ticket/932 Everything is currently only in the design phase. There are probably lots of details to work out. I'll soon start with some prototype code to see if the general idea works and if something needs to be changed. Comments are welcome. /Nicklas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
