Making the skinning layout.xsl more 'modular'
---------------------------------------------

         Key: DSY-542
         URL: http://issues.cocoondev.org//browse/DSY-542
     Project: Daisy
        Type: Improvement
 Reporter: Marc Portier
    Priority: Minor


The current skinning system is already quite 'modular' when it comes down to be split over multiple separate files.

However, each of these files is holding a number of templates that each in their own right need to be completely overridden when a new skin is to be made.

A general effort should be taken to split down the templates in smaller pieces, as well as to provide some clear documentation for each of them.

This issue acts as a focal point in this effort
- please list suggestions and or modularity-itches as comments to this issue


Work on this should result in a new 'default' skin, and can thus even be performed as a completely new replacement skin rather then as patches on the current one.
(Which should lower the bar for the lesser-svn-skilled and read an as open invitation to anyone around to share their expertise in this area by providing some 'baseskin' to be included...)
