XBL problem

Strategy

• Components are based on XBL 2.
• Components are written XForms. We want to avoid using Java or JavaScript scripting
• As a first implementation, components can only return a text value (like the built-in XForms controls) 

   My question is that:

   1. Should OPS support XBL 2 ?

   2. When (is OPS 3.7, OR 3.8...)?

This is a very interesting topic.

Currently Orbeon Forms doesn't support XBL (not to be confused with  
XPL...). But XBL is one option we are contemplating to support  
reusable components. We may or may not go that way after all.

This is not going to be in 3.7 for sure. As for when, we can't promise  
anything.

We are currently thinking about how to implement some higher-level  
components for a project. We don't yet know whether this will end up  
being natively supported by the XForms engine at this point, or  
whether this will be implemented on top of the XForms engine. In the  
longer term, we think that this should be native functionality.
