As its all "work and planing in progress" I CC'ed Shaun and hope he corrects and comments those things he disagrees with :) There are actually two things going on: 1. If you look at the world Pulse tries to model: http://static.ludwigf.org/blog/linked_data5.png All the ellipses seen there are modeled some way in Pulse but the big rectangle in the middle is not. Pulse does save every data related to branches. As an example that might technically correct to save nearly all data branch-bound but does not model the way most people think: every branch provides its own doap file. They might provide different links for the homepage of a project so homepage links are branch-bound. But I'm sure most people don't think this way. For my work gsoc work with Pulse this good as it simplifies the relationship between bugs, projects, branches and distribution packages. 2. The modularization This is something Shaun started before I even heard about Pulse. His branch for this is called "applications" and I decided early on to base my work on this branch instead of the mainline. I hope I contributed some useful to this branch as well ;) So modularization of Pulse web app is already on the way but Shaun suggested to go even further to ease development of other frontends. greetings, -- Florian Ludwig <dino phidev org>
