Hi, B. Actually, I really do not understand what the issue is. We said from the very beginning that the strategy is the following: Stage 1: Get RPackage in the image and pretend that it acts like a smart cache for categories. Everything is expressed in terms of categories and mirrored in RPackage. Tools can now be built on top of RPackage. At this stage, no modification is needed and the new tools will work next to the old ones. Stage 2: Leave the logic of Monticello loading as it is now (n-to-1 Categoeies-to-MonticelloPackage), but modify Monticello publishing to rely on 1-to-1 RPackage-to-MonticelloPackage. This will basically force people to start changing the configurations. Stage 3: Change the Monticello loading to only allow 1-to-1 RPackage-to-MonticelloPackage. At this point, we can safely remove the Categories. So, why should this not work? Btw, there is a working basic GlamorousClassicCoder using RPackage. I did not announce it yet because there are still details to deal with. Cheers, Doru On 28 Oct 2011, at 13:20, Stéphane Ducasse wrote:
Hi guys
so what do we do with RPackage - (A) throw away 4 months or more of my work. I feel sorry for Nautilus and I could understand that benjmain gets really pissed off. but this means that we will stay with the old browsers. Sounds like a promising future. - (B) use it with a mapping one to one with category (and yes people will have to change the configurations). This is done. - (C) somebody takes three hours to look at what I did and think a bit but does not tell me that this is easy but propose a real plan to get towards a solution.
Marcus, igor your wish to have labels (I added them to RPackage). I fixed SystemAnnouncement. Now without help it will not work (if you do not put energy on the table). I have a lot of wishes too and something else to do too. Because we have categories in addition⦠I discussed with Benjamin and we can fill up RPackageOrganizer with MCWorkingCopies but this means that we will have to match the complete system with subcategories ( Graphics-Core should match Graphics*
So since it does not seem that we are pragmatic or that we want to make progress on this topic, I will do A and we will wait for concrete discussions. Apparently nobody care anyway. So this should not be important after all.
