:-) I'll give the stuff a bit more time to breed and a bit more 'food' to swallow and then see what comes out. I see the basic shape of the picture but it's only a sketch of MTRT (more than random thoughts ;-). > as sinful as it might seem around here, I have been thinking about a > non-XML version of a sitemap syntax and it is surprisingly similar to > what you described. I think apart from being easily digested via Configuration's et al. there's no strong reason to being forced to that 'syntax' and I surely don't think of it as a sin (what's that? ;-). and the simple and powerful structure of the pipelines makes a minimal syntax possible; when you declare a generator pipeline, the first component has to be a generator and the remaining (if any) have to be transformers. the same principle also for the other pipeline types. so you end up with simple names, as in the example I gave. > > DISCLAIMER: before people run off to their bosses and pull the emergency > break, remember: this is an RT, this is the place where crazy new ideas > are discussed and distroyed... what remains standing might be the next > big innovation in the field ;-) yeah, we'll see what comes out. but since 'ein bild sagt mehr als tausend worte' I'll try to come back showing a picture instead of letting floods of words break open.
