This can't be relevant, can it? 93.97.29.181 (talk) 23:58, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed section 

message: This  is linked to from some Philosophy, Mathematics and Physics contexts. I've tried to structure the article accordingly. Most software articles linking here should probably link to Software framework instead. This is related to my merge (talked about below) --Ian Bailey 17:18, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Not just software! 

message: I  suggest that this article is moved to something like Software Framework or Development Framework. It has barely something in common with the actual meaning of the word framework. The word framework deserves a more precise explanation than just jumping onto technological and marketing terms. --Retrakker 06:53, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  General 

message: I would really appreciate someone explaining the differences between these terms:
* Framework
* Application framework
* Software framework
In particular, is an application framework just one part (the libraries/classes) of a general framework?
And the term framework: is it roughly the same thing as "environment"?

thread_title:  Disambiguation please 

message: This page has a category of Integrated development environments. Is this category appropriate? Kiore 22:12, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: IDE?

message: there was a lot of duplication between this page and Software framework, and since this page mentioned software specifically, I merged most of this article over there, leaving the general framework bits behind.
I did drop a lot of the link spam in the process, but I don't really see that as a bad thing.

message: The Scaffolding page refers to scaffolding as a framework. This usage should be included in disambiguation of the term. Karl gregory jones (talk) 05:38, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Now a disambiguation page

message: The article's description of a "Software Framework" makes the phrase the same thing (a synonym) for a (software) library.  As explained under "Application Frameworks" it is a synonym for "development platform".  (An example it gives is Eclipse -- which is a development platform.  So is BlueFish or ColdFusion Studio (but these aren't mentioned). There is no References section for this article but there is for the "Application Framework" article.  The references given do not support the article's content but each reference is itself, a framework.  
Here's how I picture the term, "framework":
It seems like "framework" refers to a subset of selections made from a superset.  Assume a superset with 4 categories, A, B, C, and D.  For A, there are 5 choices, B there are 6 choices, C there are 4 and D there are 50 choices.
If you choose #1 from column A, you can no longer use 1, 2, and 5 from columns B, you can only use #2 from Column C and you have the full range of 50 choices from column D.  This would define a framework. Other permutations exist in this hypothetical example.
