I can understand the desirability of a plug-in (to hold parts or all of
the deprecated stuff), but that would then be one more thing (for AW) to
maintain. I suppose someone in the community could maintain it...
But my idea - for the fork and transitory builds - gives you (AW) an
exit point at least. You can release the "lite" fork and carry on - with
the understanding that the "fat" build will be around for X months as a
production fallback - while people test their dev environments with
"lite" to expose any cfinputs, cfselects or cfgrids that might still be
in there.
Then "lite" becomes your regular build, and "fat" becomes the
deprecated/archived build after X months, a year, whatever. It wouldn't
be maintained, but I suppose people could still run and/or patch it on
their own? And if someone wanted to make a cfform plug in on their own?

That is not a bad idea, one we could explore. There is a lot of stuff
that has been integrated into the core engine so unpicking it may not
be easy without effecting stuff as a plugin may be hard. But yes, i
think if we create a new build and go from there, should be
interesting to see.

Perhaps you could just fork an "OpenBD-Lite" package to start off.
I'd love to dump some of my apps in there and see what - if anything
- breaks.
After a few months, you can just archive today's "full" package, and
the lite version could take its place. Just swap some names.
It would allow for some transition, so we folks could see in advance
what we coded (and forgot) all those years ago, and give us some time
- rather than just pulling out the rug from under us one day.
