Indeed. I've been chatting to Adrian about FAPI 2.0, and the vision is<br>for there to be a separation between 'user-facing forms' and 'data<br>definitions', and for the data definition system to handle things like<br>validation. So an import module, for example, could work with the
<br>definition directly, rather than going 'through' a form. This is<br>closely tied in to the import / export API that I'm working on, as my<br>Summer of Code project.<br><br>@Robrecht: have you heard about this project? I have looked into your
<br>node_import module, and I would love to hear any feedback that you may<br>have about what you'd like to see in an import / export API. Your<br>module has already given me plenty of ideas for what should be in such<br>
an API.</blockquote><div><br>Is the code or specs somewhere? I've read your SOC proposal just now, and if it get's implemented right, node_import will only be a few lines... so I'm very much interested :-)<br><br></div></div>
