Hi,
I'd like to discuss the granularity we want to have for our
applications. This discussion was prompted by the recent password-
reset application. There are some pros and cons I think of having
small applications.
Pros:
- better compartimentation
- different release cycle
Cons:
- heaviness of release (separate XAR; etc)
- different release cycle
- fragmentation
My personal take is that this application should go under the
administration application so that it's released together with it (it
could be a sub module that is aggregated in the final XAR for the
admin app.).
WDYT?
I was thinking about this myself. For me, it isn't exactly
Administration, as it isn't something admins can do, that's why I
created a different application.
We could rename the administration application to something more
generic, and which should have submodules (administration,
coreClasses,
passwordReset).
For me this is definitely an Administrative feature. Administration
doesn't mean it's only for administrators. It means anything that is
an administrative feature.
I don't have any better idea on the name right now.
Thanks
