Re: [gatein-dev] GateIn Api Discussion
1/ the content registry is not tied to a particular portal but instead is the same for any
site (including group/user) so it should be available on the GateIn interface
2/ I don't get the difference between Portal (which extends Node) and Site (which
extends Navigation). A site is a container for pages and navigations. A portal extends a
site (as it provides more things).
3/ what does the Node interface describe ? I don't see a real interest in there and it
makes things more complex to understand, specially with the generics
public interface Navigation<T extends Node<T>> extends
GateInObject<Navigation>, Container<Navigation>
I think we can afford to use generics, but we cannot afford to use too many generics.

completely the navigation use cases based on the recent exchanges when I come back from
vacations. I guess the current scope of the API is not as extended as I first thought so
there are lots of things that will disappear from the current design.
