Personally I think the current rating system should be enough - only not enough people use it (for example my modules have only one or two ratings, yet they are used by a lot of people, and have been for many years). Why don't you start by rating those modules that you feel are horribly lacking with 0 stars? Michael -- Michael Peppler Data Migrations, Inc.
