Hi everyone. Would it make sense to move the entire installer and
updater folders from the platform (libraries/joomla) to the cms
(libraries/cms) folder?
As I understand it, the existing classes in these folders are tightly
coupled to the CMS and it seems to create unnecessary coordination
difficulties putting cms-specific fixes through the platform bug fix
process.
I'm in solid agreement with this approach. I think it may make sense for
us to have a more generic set of classes for handling packages and
manifests, etc for the platform in the future. That being said I doubt
very seriously that they'd be anything like what is there now. You've got
my support.
