Hi you both ;)

I think I don't want to write yet another proposal in parallel to you 
but I do have some ideas on how to do stuff. I'd very much appreciate a 
more collaborative approach and not end up in the usual I-wrote-my-own 
situation.

So please publish your code early and often, and let's have a virtual or 
real meeting at some point where we can discuss the basics.

Elmar, you're already working on too many issues simultaneously, like 
models or different view methods. Why not concentrate on a reliable 
controller that

a) is easy to deploy and extend (by using hooks for actions and 
"controller recursion")
b) uses a class naming and autoloading scheme so we get rid of require 
and include crap.
c) works in BE and FE

That is easy simple enough but needs to be done before we think about 
views (I'd like a smarty view though ;)) and models.

Two questions still:
1. Joerg, where is your code?
2. Elmar, what's the difference between front and action controllers? 
Why bother with PHP4?

Michael
