...I do not need to discuss more, as Upayavira captured my thoughts on the matter very well. Since we do not have a vote thread started yet, my *opinion* is +1 flat structure, -0 directories. (i.e. Strongly prefer flat, but would not try to veto directories.)
Same here - I do actually prefer a flat structure, with enough metadata in block.xml (for example) to build a page with the status of each block. More flexible and easier to manage.
Reinhard, you put my name in the "people who support directories" list - I do support whatever valuable work is being done, and classifying blocks via directories is valuable IMHO. But given the choice I prefer the "flat" option.
First sorry for misinterpreting you. I also withdraw my proposal of putting blocks into a classifying directory structure (although I still think that the community status is *the* classifying property). I don't want to waste any further energy in this, as we have to do more important things.
If nobody stops me, I will put all blocks into /cocoon/blocks/[block-name]/trunk/ and create a block.xml for each. It will contain an element indicating the community status and for now *all* blocks get the status "committed". If somebody wants to see a block somewhere else, he needs to start a vote (and for this voting the wiki page will be very helpful ...)
So hopefully we can move on to some more productive work ;-)
Forgot to mention that I will wait with the move until after the infraton. So there is some time if there are still some arguments against the move ...
