Yes, that's what I also read. Because of that I worked with this kind of
tag implementation that is derived from Tobis "labels branch" instead of
implementing a n:m relation over a relations table like Philipp suggests.
The implementation over a relations table / prototypes seems to be the
"cleaner" version from a object-relational perspective. But maybe it
leads to some performance issues that I can't really estimate with my
experience....

It would be good to hear Tobis ideas about that :)

You're right. The tags functionality depends on some javascript and
skins that are implemented within the typolis layout. The code therefore
is just for giving an idea how tags implementation could be done and
should not be considered as a installable/runnable application. I just
wanted to contribute to the discussion for further tags implementation
in antville.

I merged the two branches and extended and modified the Label/Tag
functionality. At some point we decided to use our own designs in the
skins we had to built. So the code can be messed up in some places.
I implemented the tags this way, because it was already started in this
manner in the "label branch" (see above). But this kind of
implementation is surely a point of discussion.
