environment abstraction
objects in the object model.
But I would suppose most users would be happy to
get rid of this extra
complication.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not absolutely against
ditching the abstraction
(see my last mail in the thread), but I think from
the response so far,
there is no big cheering group out there dancing
around singing "yes,
that's exactly what we wanted for years". So I
think, unless there are
really some more users saying, "yes, please, do
that" we should simply
not do it.
For the versioning, we could for example release a
2.2 soon, change the
environment abstract after that and then release a
2.3 later this year.
If I understand Daniel correctly, he wants to change
it because this simplifies his work on the block
implementation. Right?
Simplification isn't the main issue for the blocks, even if that is
achieved as well. The main reason is to simplify controller development
and integrating Cocoon applications with external applications through
the block system.
