OK. I was hoping to get the gadgets before the dashboard.

Hi Anca,
+1 for A)
I like the fact that this will easily get integrated into the wysiwyg
Not that spectacularly easily. The only advantage from the wysiwyg pov
is when you'll want to add a gadget in a page, not in a dashboard
(because it's not possible to edit the content of a macro in wysiwyg
manner). The dashboard will have its own edit UI (very wysiwyg as well),
which would be the same for option B as well.
, the
fact that it offers more display freedom, better reuse and cleaner
syntax.
Sorry, I didn't follow your roadmap, but how do you plan to integrate
this
into the platform? I see the
gadgets/directory/dashboard as distinct
elements. Are these going to be implemented(to be read 'implemented&
released') separately or in one big step?
In the other mail I was proposing some steps to make it happen, and also
the point when it would be ready to be integrated in the platform.
Basically once you can build a dashboard and put gadgets in it, it would
be available in the platform, and then perfect the interaction with the
dashboard (directory, adding stuff, editing properties) and then the 2
default dashboards will be created.
So answer is gradually once it's stable it should be in the platform.
Thanks,
Anca
