| Subject: [Bodington-developers] Progress report: IMS Content Packaging
| 
| I've just committed code that allows users with Manage permission to
| export an IMS content package version 1.1.4 from a webdocument.  The
| exported CP can be loaded by Bodington - tested by doing a round-trip
| with Aggie's protein CP, and checking that the import from the
| round-trip is not distinguishable to the user from the
| originally-imported version.
| 
| So I think we can release 2.6 with import many spec-compliant content
| packages.  Bodington has never implemented some of the more obscure
| features of CPs, such as sub-manifests and xinclude; those features
| remain out of scope for this project, whose intention was to get CP
| import/export up to date.
| 
| Still to do: Implement the notion that an installation-defined sequence
| of XSLT filters run on CPs before they are imported.  This allows
| filtering of non-spec-compliant CPs to be at least minimally compliant,
| without having to recompile Bodington.
| 
| Still to do: Amend the XML repository to be namespace-aware.  I'm
| thinking about the best way to do this.
| 
| Still to do: TEST!  I have very few real-world CPs with which to test.
| If you have pointers to some, I'd still appreciate them.
