[tinyTiM-discuss] Roadmap for tinyTiM Map I/O

[Lars H. <he...@se...>]

Hi all,

Aside from the CTMWriter I ported all classes of tinytim.mio to
org.tmapix.io [1].

Additionally, the tmapix.io package contains an experimental
LTMTopicMapWriter that writes (guess what) LTM 1.3.

The changes to existing code should be minimal, you'll only need to
change the package name from org.tinytim.mio to org.tmapix.io (I'll
provide a migration doc).

My current plan is, to release tmapix-io 0.3.0 soon and to deprecate
the tinytim.mio package. The tinytim.mio 2.0a6 release will consist of
wrapper classes that adapt the tmapix-io interfaces / classes to
org.tinytim.mio. You can use tinytim-mio as it is but you'll get
deprecation warnings.

What do you think? Do you like to see a tinytim-mio-2.0a6 release
without the tmapix-io dependency? Delaying the dependency to tmapix-io
till mio-2.0a7 would also be acceptable for me.

Or should I follow my plan as described above?
