What is meant here with access to custom repositories ? If it's
integrating external sources, that IMO has no effect on Lenya/JCR: if
you want the CMS to manage that source, it's no longer external and it
would instead need to be imported.
I share this opinion. But, to quote Michi:

IIUC he means that Lenya should be able to edit external content directly.
Please correct me if I got this wrong.
If instead you want data managed
elsewhere to be displayed within a publication, this also wouldn't be
affected by Lenya switching to JCR
So IMO this question is not applicable
- Is Jackrabbit stable enough to act as the default Lenya
repository implementation?
I agree that's a valid concern. I guess, from the community perspective,
we have to try :) An alternative scenario is to base Lenya's content
handling on the JCR API anyway (meaning, a Lenya node becomes a JCR node
etc.) and for storage have our content mapped one-to-one onto files, as
it is now.
Does this mean that we provide our own stripped-down JCR implementation?
If these concerns are not considered weighty, we should start to
re-design the Lenya repository layer. IMO it makes sense to use
a Wiki page to collect random thoughts and to refine them gradually.
Of course a meeting (brainstorming day) would be great. Maybe all
involved people want to visit Zurich? :)
I'd be interested in that. I'm coming to Zurich anyway on a personal
matter Sept. 24-25, so let me be the first to propose a date ;)
How about monday, Sept. 26th ?
+1, if my boss agrees :)
