What *is* a forrest:view?
-------------------------
Some of the confusion over Views seems to have come about because they
do much more than just replace skins. They add a whole new feature set.
We therefore decided to define some terminology to help clarify the
situation.
The sooner that we get this settled the better.
+1, especially since Thorsten is refactoring things now. I'm not going
to comment on the thread just yet since I started it, I'd like to hear
other views first.
I will add one more point though. We are using the "ft:" namespace
identifier for templates, this is the same identifier used for
forms-templates in Cocoon. We should think about a different identifier
(I know we can change it if there is ever a clash, but wouldn't it be
better to plan forward there is already an occasion where forms are
being used in an experimental Forrest site).
