Re: [Sandler-develop] Default Content

[Mark L. <ma...@ca...>]

Sorry it took a bit to reply, I lost my DSL while working at home
yesterday.

So I have read this a few times and re-read that section of the spec
(http://www.mnot.net/drafts/draft-nottingham-atom-format-02.html#rfc.section.4.13.10  for those lurking)

and at this point I think specifing a default selector is not all that
bad. I think you jstl example is quite a good argument for it, though
the long method name aint my favorite choice.. 

We could also make a assumption that setting a general ContentSelector
for the builder would be enough and the model where it needs it uses it.
