Forum OpenACS Improvement Proposals (TIPs): Re: TIP #37 (Proposed): Queries in XQL file conventions

Posted by Jeff Davis on
For the record, the voting looks like:
DaveB: no (?)
Don: no
Jeff: yes
Lars: yes
Roberto: ?
Peter: ?
Caroline: no
Tilmann: no
Malte: no
where ? means didn't vote and (?) means I think it was a no but I am not sure if it was no to the proposal or if it was just no to trying to fix any that currently exist (remember that the original proposal is simply one of coding standards i.e. explicitly stating that having generic queries in the .tcl file is acceptible).

Apologies if I got anyones vote wrong here.

In any case it seems like the required 2/3 is not there so this is rejected and the status quo coding standard: all queries in .xql files with the exception of things that cannot be multidb by design (schema browser for example).

It's also worth noting that the existing packages do not adhere to the existing standard very well in any case, and regardless of whether this is approved there is a lot of work to be done to bring things into line.
