Right. If there will be such larger changes, they will happen in v2. For
now in 1.1 I'm only trying to trim, streamline and modernize the current
code base without making any breaking changes and adding things on top.

One thing for instance that I've already largely trimmed away is the
named value acess magic. It was complex, hard to understand and
maintain, and it was hardly used anyway, plus Python properties today
provide similar functionality. I'm also converting everything to
new-style classes and using more modern and efficient Python idioms
everywhere. This will make it much easier to port Webware to Python 3.

The nore modern and slim code will allow us to maintain current Webware
apps for many more years and at the same time provide a better starting
basis for a new major version with breaking changes.
