I'm really enjoying the discussion this thread is producing, but it seems to me that, at this point, splitting the API up by browser shouldn't be a priority. I agree that the benefits of splitting are minimal at this point and would require lots of careful maintenance that a lot of people won't bother to do. I don't think imposing tight restrictions on development is really true to the spirit of this API. Once we decide to have official requirements -- whether it be splitting, an "official" widget model or inheritance scheme -- then we'll also have to have to impose rules so that people won't doing things that will break our precious standard. The only thing that should be standard for now is the core. Everything else can be done however you want to. If you wanted, you can do as Pascal did and use the DynAPI2 source to build in whatever modifications you desired. That doesn't mean that we won't do it in the future, though. -- scott andrew lepera ----------------------------------- web stuff: www.scottandrew.com music stuff: www.walkingbirds.com |
