Ciao Claudio! I understand and agree with you about your doubts - I don't have a strong idea, anyway I wouldn't take the *Handler as first choice, since it does not drive users to an event-handler alike programming model, rather *Operations makes more sense...
Let's take some time to think about it, excellent catch anyway :) best, -Simo http://people.apache.org/~simonetripodi/ http://simonetripodi.livejournal.com/ http://twitter.com/simonetripodi http://www.99soft.org/ On Sat, Feb 11, 2012 at 8:53 PM, Claudio Squarcella <squar...@dia.uniroma3.it> wrote: > Hi, > > >> Maybe one last effort can be made to come up with more understandable >> names (e.g. for a user that does not know what a Semigroup or Monoid is). >> Suggestions are welcome. > > > I exhume this thread because I am still convinced that the "weight > architecture" would benefit from a bit of renaming.
