Some people use their own versions of these buidlers. Especially
'people' is a builder that gets changed a lot. And we (NOS) also changed
urls (added a 'name' field), and news (added a 'date' field). I can
imagine other peopel doing that.
But I guess we can make a list of 'basic' buidlers that we deliver
'active', standard turned 'on'. We could put these in a 'basic'
directory (similar to a 'core' directory) to indicate their nature.
The buidlers that would fall into that directory, imo:
attachments, people, pools, posrel, urls, news, topics
Hmmm...I don't know about topics and pools, but maybe we have to create
a few more examples (for 1.7) which demonstrates the use of these
'basic' builders. IMHO it must be clear the builders included with
MMBase, are basic builders that *can* be used......but these builders
are not *the* builders.
possible candidates: faqs and sections
(sections is a builder we use for simple (name/description) texts and
paragraphs)
For faqs we could create an example, I'm not sure I like the section :)
We first had something like paragraphs, but it wasn't working very well.
I would also propose to change the urls builder to add a name field
(very useful when representing the url of a site:
url: http://www.mmabse.org
name: The MMBase Site
description: MMBase is an open source publishing system. MMBase can be
used to create big web sites that can be maintained easily.
).
I'm ok, with this change, but I'm not sure what to do with it, the
codefreeze started yesterday......
Btw I am in favor of dropping jumpers from MyNews and MyYahoo - why
are they part of those applications?
Because these examples can be accessed by their jumpers.....
News doesn't add a jumper (not through the application, anyway).
Hmmm...I thought it did.....
