This separation is actually causing grief for the off-line docs, as we cannot link from one to the other. I looked back through the email threads on FOR-391 and it seems that we made an assumption leap to have the docs-author and site-author split. There was a passing comment that we might have it like Cocoon where they have a completely separate svn:cocoon/site/ to hold the top-level docs. We didn't talk about the consequences. So coming back to the current proposal, the only issue that i see is that we will have multiple versions of the top-level docs. I don't see that as a problem because we will have multiple versions of /docs/ anyway and they will have a banner saying "this is version x.y". --David

Dude, no hurries.
You know more or less know what I am trying to do. Now I need more
devs/user and committer (junior/senior) looking in the stuff and give
me/us feedback.
I think it would be a good idea to plan the view/leather as default
skinning mechanism for 0.8. That would makes it possible to develop the
skinning engine for 0.9 and have a stable version on our 1.0. :)
...but for that I need some eyes on the code and NOT ONLY yours and
mine!!! Actually I wish especially that Nicola would have a look and
play devils advocate. ;-)
David had a look on it this morning (I am still waiting for things you
do [not] like). ;-)
Sorry for being pain in the a***, but I need some enhancement suggestion
because I am relative happy with the concept but not really with my
implementation (it is still proof of concept). ;-)
One important thing IMO is to officially define an interface for skins
and views. Leather has it (e.g.
cocoon://get.contract.{contract-name}.{format}) but as well contains the
implementations. I reckon the given example match would be better of in
the view plugin which define the interface.
New skins would need only to provide new implementations of contracts
and not define the interface again. That will make it necessary to
change some matches but actually I only have not implemented it yet to
not deciding the future of skins all by myself and bringing more
complexity to the things I am doing.
Talking about complexity, I was teaching my students the MVC pattern and
must admit that I see our nuggets as result of models. This models
depend on the document specific meta data (forrest:properties). They
deliver our intermediate format.
Now the view/leather plugins are a mix of controller and view in my eyes
that is the reason (I guess) Ross et. al. having problems to understand
me because I am mixing things in the code and do not have a clear
separation.
...and that is the reason why I need feedback. ;-)

I get different behaviour. I see the same skins in both.
It looks like the pelt skin.

project.skin -> should get ignored by the plugins! I am still using
skinit pipes but they can now come from pelt.
project.required.plugins-> orgleather, org...view, org...
Just do
1) svn up in {forrest}/plugins
2) cd org...leather; ant local-deploy
3) cd org...view; ant local-deploy
4) in e.g. org...view 'forrest' and then 'forrest run'
You will see the plugin get rendered by 'forrest' with the pelt skin in
build/site. If you now turn to 'forrest run' instance you find a
complete different skin.
Now I just did a 'forrest' on a fresh seed where I add both plugins
(like you stated) and it is working just fine (static/dynamic show the
same). It seems only to be a problem in the plugin which is a bummer
because I cannot deploy them. :(

The second way seems much easier and leaves more scope for the future. To use the first way, would also mean a re-structure of the docs part of forrest_06_branch. --David

Differents between 'forrest' and 'forrest run'
Hello devs, trying to deploy the view and leather plugin I found a weird thing happening: Doing 'forrest run' brings the site rendered by the plugins, but doing 'forrest' will use the "normal" skin. How come? How can I fix that? Any ideas? TIA salu2 -- thorsten "Together we stand, divided we fall!" Hey you (Pink Floyd)
2nd generation skinning - view and leather
Hello devs, I splitted views into view and leather. view Is an internal plugin which prepares the presentation stage by calling all needed content and add it to the pipeline. Right now we are hooking in the last stage (site2xhtml) of the core skinit pipes. leather Is an output plugin which provides the contract implementations requested by the view. This contracts have been extracted from the site2xhtml.xsl from leather-dev. Trying to say that the contracts are xsl-templates. Everything seems to work the way I expected. Now I have to finish all contracts from leather/pelt (leather), move all skin core pipes that are requesting content to the (view) and document everything very well. ;-) If somebody have some spare time and want to help us with the "2nd generation skinning" you can: - help implementing the missing contracts from pelt/leather into forrest:templates - provide css enhancement for the leather plugin skin - look into the skin core pipes and move them over to the view plugin - write documentation salu2 -- thorsten "Together we stand, divided we fall!"

clean up the plugins
I started going through the plugins to fix any major issues before the release. The /plugins/ area of the website has some old *.zip for the plugins that have been renamed ... OpenOffice.org.zip feeder.zip htmlArea.zip text-output.zip Should i remove them from the forrest-site/plugins/ SVN? --David
