WebLab Core evolutions

The Weblab is separated in several technical sub-packages.

One of this package is called WebLabCore, however this name is confusing since it does not correspond completly with the WebLab Core described in our Architecture. In the next version, we will rename the technical package WebLabCore in WebLabExchangeModel.

WebLabExchangeModel will contain:

• the WebLab Model
• the WebLab Extended Model
• the WebLab Annotator

We will introduce a technical package WebLabHelpers (which is part of the Weblab Core too) containing previous WebLabCore helpers (I told you it was confusing ?). Thus the WebLab Core refers to all elements presented in WebLab Core Stable.

About WebLab Factories, we will provide updated factories dealing with the new exchange model. Those factories should be more efficient when dealing with complex WebLab Resources. They will allow users to automatically generate numerous Segments and MediaUnits.

A new feature is the automated insertion of a ComposedUnit between a parent Resource and a MediaUnit.
