So this is what is floating around in my head for changes to topics. These are the needs I see: * Stories need to be able to belong to multiple topics * We still need a single topic for display * This still has to be fast * We need section topics * The topic list is to long in admin for large sites * Keyword support for RSS and such would be nice To pull this off, the following changes are made: * Stories get a sequence (need this for other stuff too..) * Topics get a sequence and an optional section * Table is created that puts a story sequence with the topic sequence. We can either assign all topics to sections, or topics without sections are global. Stories are still displayed with the topic used in the story table. We can use the use the multiple topics for places where we need keyword support today. This about a days worth of work and this would be for 2.2 (which should add the support newsforge needs). -Brian |
