[VW] 2.8a1.390 Missing Dialog classes

In looking at Seaside 2.81.390 I noticed that the Seaside 2.6 dialog  
classes listed below are not in Seaside 2.8a1.390. I have not been  
paying attention to Seaside 2.8 so don't know much about its status.  
I am wondering if these classes have been dropped, have not been  
ported to 2.8 or does their functionality exists elsewhere?

They have been dropped. A mail went out to this list if anybody still
used them and nobody replied.

We asked in the mailing list some time ago if anybody cares about
these dialogs. Since nobody replied we dropped them. Some of them were
even broken. Personally I don't know of any application that uses
these dialogs. If people want such things a separate widget/dialog
library would be a good thing. We would like to keep the noise ratio
of Seaside as low as possible.

I created a SqS project with their latest versions:
http://www.squeaksource.com/dialogs.html
I do not maintain them, if they have bugs or don't work, I don't care.
But I will make anybody admin or dev who is interested in them.

Honestly I think it would be the best way if Sushi Store became a SqS
project of it's own. It doesn't really serve a purpose, there are
smaller, easier examples who explain the concepts. It is not well
maintained. It isn't really a good example of a Seaside application
anymore. It adds a lot of stuff that would otherwise not be needed.
WAStoreMasterCard anyone?

I'm all for reducing the amount of stuff in Seaside's core. The more the
documentation and tutorial based builds the less need there is for
built-in big examples.

Thanks for the response. I am working on a small write up on Seaside  
dialogs & wanted to know if I should include those or not.

Totally agree, a sample app really shouldn't be part of the core anyway.
Keep the core as small as possible.
