The diference (for me) between a View and a Block is whether they are intended to be accessed directly by a client (browser). Blocks also tend to be reuseable in many views (I typically have a Block (DTML Method) called main_navigation, for example), and can be composed of other Blocks. Views like index_html may be reused, but usually through acquisition, not recomposition.
I like the idea behind blocks, I think it's probably the best name yet and described how most people use things like PythonMethods, external method and DTML Methods :-) cheers, Chris
