Re: [Fez-users] ability to extend all documents

[Peter (p. S. <pt...@pt...>]

I have been suggesting to the Fez team that they replace the whole mapping
thing with programmatic solution - using code of some kind (XSLT) or PHP for
the mapping. With appropriate libraries this would make it easy to create
generic mappings and then subclass them - and to keep the whole lot in
Subversion.
