Hi Miro,
sure - but the common cases should be available "out of the box". The
current installation model is cool, dynamic and flexible but neither
simple, robust nor pragmatic. It is important for marketing purposes, to
show the dynamic capabilites - but obvious stuff should be prebundled.
I do no see any advantage downloading needed parts "on demand". The size
of GF v2 was never a problem (actually noone complained in my projects
about this...).
I would like to "keep it simple" - a "micro-kernel" edition should be
available as well - for "power users".
Your idea, having a JSR-277 control unit, in NB is great.
regards,
adam
