i think that lenya has too many real problems right now to think about virtual ones. there should be one canonical site structure, period. (it may even be flat).


I guess by the canonical site structure you mean the repository structure, right?

IMO it's more abstract - we don't refer to the implementation, but
only to interfaces. What is in your opinion a "repository structure"?
The internal storage structure doesn't matter here, since only the
Lenya core has access to it.

which is a problem until the day that lenya is perfect.
the more you abstract away from the user, the more respnsibility you have to bear. if you don't let the user tinker with the data in a sane way, you have to live with his/her email questions :-D

Apart from various minor ones, there's one major reason that we
need interfaces: backwards compatibility. We need a lot more protection
of code than we have now to enable agile and uncompromising development.

I'm happy with answering these mails, because I can just copy & paste
my default reply:

"This is not supported. If you implement it, your next Lenya update
might fail. Please ask on lenya-dev for the reasons.
Please file an enhancement bug if you need this functionality."
