[PyCS-devel] Just an idea for the future - getable/setable properties (like stylesheet)

[Georg B. <gb...@mu...>]

Hi!

I think it would be good if users could provide a link to their own pycs
hosted stylesheet for things like searching or zeitgeist or referrers -
that way PyDS or bzero could say "hey, this is my stylesheet, use it
instead of the main stylesheet" and so PyCS would deliver functionality
in the right colors.

Phil: any ideas where to put such an information? Maybe in the ping
payload? Or should we have additional functions "setProperty",
"getProperty" and "listProperties" (accompanied by a flag in the
capabilities that tells the client that it has these functions) that
allow to get or set properties from the client in an extensible fashion?
The latter one would allow over time to give the users more influence on
how the community server works, but I don't know wether RCS will join in
to that idea - otherwise it would just be another PyCS speciality. Hmm.

Anyway, this has to wait until PyCS CVS isn't borked any more. Currently
I just get connection refused from SF :-/

bye, Georg
