I've done some thinking, and I want to suggest a somewhat different categorization to this group site. I'd also like to suggest some changes to front page.


Relationships-categorization system wanted features

"Relationship" I understood as relationships between fields (nodes are many relationships, which are subject of more advanced process).

Wanted features:

  1. Powerful and without limitation thanks to the most abstract (see: "everything is a field", compare this to: Global CCK fields, A controversial(?) point: store translations as nodes).
  2. Build-in categorization features.
  3. Build-in views features (listing fields, not necessary nodes).
  4. Build-in menu features.
  5. Support for Semantic Web/Microformats/similar.

Observations about current situation:

Everything is a field

The most abstract concept in my opinion: "everything is a field" (fully atomic value) instead of "everything is a node". CCK is ardent proof that this idea could work. If that's the case, we can share the same field (as regards value), node is just a set of fields tie together by new relationships system, whereas content type is a predefined set of relationships between fields.

Okay, I sent Boris a list of questions, because I didn't really know where they belonged or if they belonged. Based on his reply to me, I'm putting them here, in separate posts, since I believe they are different topics (but I may be wrong -- I'm sure someone will correct me, if I am).

Is there going to be some defined structure (read: documentation) as to what content is appropriate for the site or parts of the site and where the content should be placed?
