Calendar Talk:Deprecated:Build System

Here's my suggestion for changing our layout. Thoughts?

mozilla
   calendar
       app             <-- was /m/cal/sunbird/app
       base
           branding    <-- tri-licensed "Calendar" branding
           build
           content     <-- dir merged with /m/cal/sunbird/base/content
           public
           src
       components      <-- stuff from /m/cal/base/build, content, public, src
       config          <-- was /m/cal/sunbird/config
       import-export
       installer
           linux
           windows
       libical
       lightning
           components
           content
           locale
           themes
       locales
           en-US
               chrome
       providers
       resources       <-- to be deprecated, content gets merged into base
           locale      <-- subdirs move to mozilla/l10n/AB_CD/calendar
           skin        <-- merge shared items into m/cal/themes
       test
       themes          <-- merge /m/cal/base/themes and /m/cal/sunbird/themes
           pinstripe
           winstripe
       xpi
           icons       <-- was /m/cal/os2, /m/cal/linux, /m/cal/windows
           skin        <-- xpi-only items from /m/cal/resources/skin

Comments

• All localizable stuff should go into locales/ (structure of that one looks correct to me here), I think it might be a good idea to include lightning's resources there as well.
• components/ is a bad directory name, you should organize things by function, not by how it's built - see this talk with bsmedberg about suite/ organistation about some good stuff about how an application's directory in the mozilla.org repository should be organized. It's probably a good idea to also ask bsmedberg for his opinion on your proposal (though he'll surely tell the same about components/ as in the linked discussion).

sipaq's comments

I don't like the cal/lightning/locale stuff.

Those files should go into cal/locales/en-US/chrome/lightning or cal/locales/en-US/lightning/chrome

lilmatt to sipaq:

Actually, that does make more sense, and the locale under lightning was more because that's where it currently lives versus where it should go.

I'll update the diagram to reflect that.
