    I’ve upgraded my site to 1.0 Evolution from svn. The question is, should I edit my documentation MODx From the Inside to reflect the new terminology, or leave it until 1.0 final is released?

      There isn’t even an alpha out there (I know we are going straight to RC), I wouldn’t change the documentation just yet.
      I say have a new version of the docs for the yet to be released 1.0 but keep the older 0.9.6 version around, just make sure to mark them in a way so its clear to which version of Modx each document belongs to.

        I’m all for progress. I’d update the docs and put a disclaimer at the top. The only major changes are renaming of the "Resources" to be in line with Revo: "Elements, and "Resource Browser" -> "File Browser"

          I’d like to see the term "template" reserved for page templates and the term "tpl chunk" used for snippet tpls. I think it would be less confusing for new users.

            I would go ahead and make the change, but then to prevent alienating older users you could do like (0.9.x - TERM)?

              Good call on "tpl chunks" Bob. BTW, the Evo 1.0 RC is out now in the Downloads section. smiley
