I guess as long as we still suffer from the absence of standards regarding self-contained modules, this would rather lead to confusion than to a big success. I think most developers would expect to have the option to download and to easily integrate some typical modules like Auth, ACL etc - and they would be quickly frustrated if the modules - due to the lack of standardization - would not work the way like Firefox plug-ins do. Don't get me wrong: I don't expect the ambitious developer not to see that it is always difficult to incorporate other people's work, but I really think that for a newcomer such a site at the current stage would be rather counter-productive as it induces some wrong expectations. First we need to have some best practices like we discussed them before - then it would be a joy to code such modules and certainly a big leap forward for ZF to a wider user base. Just my two cents. :) -- Cheers, \\|// Vince (o o) ----------------------------ooO-(_)-Ooo------------------------- ''' (o)_(o) [ ][0][ ] ô¿ô (=°o°=) World Domination by Copy and Paste [ ][ ][0] - (")_(") [0][0][0] () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments Ooo. ---------------------------.ooO----( )------------------------- ( ) (_/ \_)
