[android-developers] Re: MVC Architecture

I dont think its worth speding too many thought on "MVC" at all. IMO,
that term in itself is not well defined at all, its just one more of
those terms that are fashionable in the software dev community for a
certain time frame. I remember when it was first coined - that was
back in the days of ObjectWorks Smalltalk (Smalltalk being an object-
oriented programming language), somwhere in the late 80ies or early
90ies, but it meant something quite different (some detail of the
ObjectWorks UI library) from what people think of when hearing it
today. Later, it was applied to Java Servlet programming in a way that
made me shudder all over (think Struts).

A better way is to simply follow the ideal of separation of concerns.
Every component of the system should know and do just one well-defined
thing. Strong cohesion, weak coupling. Never copy code, avoid
redundancies like hell.
