Which goals would you achieve by implementing these ideas ?
From the company point of view I see these goal:
- Keep YaST maintainable with a few people, not necessarily those that developed it the last ten years.
I see this as a case against YCP.
- Easier integration of existing libraries, e.g. augeas, since we still have to implement new features. Right now we start to implement btrfs based snapshots where we will have a C++ library for the basic funcionality.
Many libraries come with bindings nowadays. Augeas provides Python, Ruby, and Perl: http://augeas.net/download.html Again, a case against investing into YCP.
- Make it easier for external contributions.
Where do external contributors currently struggle ? Is it YCP ? Is it lack of documentation ? What else ?
