I definitly agree, although I know that Scarab is closing in on it's 1.0 version, and swapping over to Summit at the last moment might not be a good idea!
However, that is not to say I am not in favor of Summit. I think any movement is better then no movement, and I am ready for Turbine to move forward after sitting at 2.2 forever. I am definitly +1 in favor of Summit, and just wish that it would become 4.0 or 3.5 sooner versus later. I will be building from scratch a new Turbine app in a month or so, and I would really rather base it on Summit versus T2.2 or T3. I have looked at the internals of Turbine, and I agree, it is horribly difficult to figure out... And please, give me a pluggable Turbine User and Security ;-) ! When the march to Summit is a go, I would be more then willing to help out if some of the more experienced developers could put together a todo list..

I'd thought the same thing for awhile. And I do think it's great that Turbine was a sort of poster child that some of the Turbine developers work on to showcase the technology and keep development active and what not. But just because Scarab uses T3 doesn't mean T3 is a good code base (not that it's bad, but in comparison to Summit) and should be released. I'd venture to say that Scarab could/should be easily ported to Summit, assuming Summit becomes T3/T4, as Turbine is just a framework that sits above the actions/templates and handles hooking them together (Fulcrum aside). As long as Summit does things the same way, albeit much cleaner internally, and Plexus can handle Fulcrum services with little modification, I see little reason for not moving to the new Summit code base and letting T3 stay at alpha. - Stephen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:turbine-dev-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:turbine-dev-help@;jakarta.apache.org>
