Hello,
It
would seem that we have to describe what the edit mode is for (personalization?)
in unambiguous terms somewhere. Sometimes, I am a bit afraid that we are using a
lot of "SHOULDS" to cover uncertainty and ambiguity when it is up to us to know
(or at least act like we know) the right answer.
Thoughts?
Take
care.

A MUST of this sort would need to really describe what
"personalization" is, and I wouldn't want to go to that route! With a SHOULD,
I think we can go with a vague definition of
"personalization".

Hello,
Perhaps, "...MUST support edit mode if it allows
personalization?"
Take care.

I second this. Many entities simply do not have
(need) an edit mode. A "Top business news" portlet may not be
personalizable.
Maybe the wording should be "... SHOULD support
edit mode if it allows personalization".

Title: An entity SHOULD support help, and CAN support
edit
Date Added: 1-Dec-2002
Document Section:
v0.85/5.10
Description:
In v0.85, an entity SHOULD support
both edit and help. I think SHOULD for edit is too strong a
recommendation, as it puts a fantastic burden on the portlets. As Help
is very simple to implement, I think the wording should be changed to:
"an entity SHOULD support help, and CAN support edit".
