This seems like a dramatic shift from what is otherwise a central operation.  Not only are we breaking from this centralized methodology, but we're now moving onto code interwoven with AKEEBA logic.\r\n\r\nI just took a 3.5 package, added a manifest file, and ran it without problems.  Can you please point me to where the challenges were discussed or elaborate on them.  \r\n\r\nUltimately I'm wondering why we are once again pushing changes that are not backward compatible.  These types of changes make it hard for us and others to manage mass installations.\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/joomla/joomla-cms/issues/comments/200492191","html_url":"https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/issues/9547#issuecomment-200492191","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/joomla/joomla-cms/issues/9547","id":200492191,"user":{"login":"dakuzen","id":13443527,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/13443527?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/dakuzen","html_url":"https://github.com/dakuzen","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dakuzen/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dakuzen/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dakuzen/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dakuzen/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dakuzen/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dakuzen/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dakuzen/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dakuzen/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/dakuzen/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-03-23T18:49:28Z","updated_at":"2016-03-23T18:49:28Z","body":"Thank you @mbabker and @brianteeman for the time.
