OK seeing thats 2 -1 (from the people I thought might want this) So have flagged this as a non-issue

I not sure I favor this either.  We do a lot of extending of impls and end up having to include impl jars in our extended compnents.  It works just fine.  We chose to operate this way because it makes maintenance easier, as our changes are isolated. 



I worry if we start moving stuff to util packages because people want to extend, pretty soon everything will be in util.

The base functionality for most resource types is in org.sakaiproject.content.util.BaseResourceType.  That would be the class to extend for a new type, rather than any of the specific resource type classes.  I favor leaving them in the impl unless there's some other compelling reason to move them to a util module.

Hi All, 



As creating new resource types came up on the list and I noticed this the other day I thought I would raise this: 



At the moment the resource content types are in the kernel-impl package. As a result if you create a new resource type by extending an exisiting on (e.g. FileUploadType as the RSMART scorm player does) one needs to include the kernel-impl jar in your deployment target. I suggest that we move this package to kernel-util 



Thoughts?
