[opencms-dev] long support for xmlpage type ?

[Paul-Inge Flakstad]

Hi,

I'm curious about this as well (or at least something similiar).

We like OpenCms. We like xmlcontent aka "structured content". We don't use containerpages, and we can live just fine without direct edit.

After testing an upgrade from 7.5.2 to 8.5 I concluded it's not an option - 8.5 can't handle our xmlcontent. (Errors occur during editing, preventing the editor to save changes. I'm not sure what the problem is; might be the new Acacia editor, might be OpenCms itself, might be some kind of incompatibility in our modules.)

The thing that really worries me is that all updates now hint at an out-phasing of xmlcontent in favor of containerpages. "Everything" now seems to be based around containerpages.

So if we want to base our sites on xmlcontent, just like we did pre-containerpage, will that work for us in the future?

Cheers,
Paul

Dear OpenCms developers at Alkacon,

How long are you going to support xmlpage type ?

I'm asking this question, because I wonder what to do with some sites what use v. 6/7 style templates. Some customers pay me for updating their site content and they don't care whether their site/template is ADE enabled or not.

Please advice me what to do for a long period of time - next 5, 10, 15 years.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards
Georgi
