[Framework-Team] plone.app.theming editor branch

[Martin Aspeli]

Hi,

I'd really like some FWT input on
http://svn.plone.org/svn/plone/plone.app.theming/branches/optilude-ace

Basically, I'm trying to decide whether to put a bunch of effort into
finishing it and getting it merged or not. I'd rather do that if it could
make it into 4.2 final.

The changes basically provide a Plone UI for something you can do in the ZMI
(edit in-ZODB themes) with a nice UI. They are fully backwards compatible,
of course.

They introduce two new JavaScript components used on the editor page (only):
ACE (http://ace.ajax.org/ - Mozilla license) and probably CoreFive
FileManager (http://labs.corefive.com/projects/filemanager/ - MIT license).

Changes still to be made:

 - Integrate file manager to allow basic management of files in a theme
 - Allow any existing theme to be cloned as the starting point for a new
theme
 - UI improvements (input welcome)

There's a thread on this on plone-dev where people are generally positive to
the idea.

Martin
