this class does not fit into SPI
Although I heard couple of definitions of what is SPI and what is API and some rules how to distinguishe these two I still feel a bit lost. I don't have any problem with this issue, but I thought that NatureInstall _is_ SPI, because it is something what must be implemented and provided by modules, they provide this "service", therefore I thought that is exactly what SPI is for. Other reason was that there is no API way how to get NatureInstall, so as an API it is unusable. Only project infrastructure works with NatureInstall and uses it. So for the moment I have feeling that this is INVALID issue. What is your opinion?
see 27914, it contains the final decission on API/SPI
