Any information on the new stuff would be great.
I will write something about the motivation behind the value links.
Due to things moving too fast I am still stuck back in
the Model-lr.235,
and even then my components have lost their ability to edit settings, so
I have lost control of my site!
I can't imagine how that could happen.
Can you give more details? Is it a security issue? Is it just not
displayed in the menu? Do you get an error? How about logging in as
administrator? How about manually navigating to the settings by typing
the URL and appending "?command=PRSettingsCommand"?
It would be nice to see some discussion of how things
are moving
forward. For example the new parser was a complete surprise, and really
messed with my head.
The new parser was introduced more than a year ago on August 12, 2007.
The new parser is fully backward compatible, it passes the extact same
tests as the old parser did, and it made it possible to have pluggable
extensions to the wiki syntax. As long as you did not patch the old
SmaCC parser there should be no compatibility issues (at least none
were reported to me).
Cheers,
Lukas
