Priority plugin vs. core

[Pontus U. <po...@ul...>]

Greetings list-members!

Ok, Tyler has convinced _me_. The priority plugin should probably remain
as a plugin. Provided that the smtp_send-hook is added to the core.
(I don't know if the current patch places this hook at a optimal place.
I suspect that if one is using the sendmail feature to send the messages the
hook will never be executed, any comments on this ?)

To answer Tylers question about whos approval one needs to put something
into the core I would say "The maintainer".
IMHO he (or she) must have the final word about what is being put into the
core or what should be considered plugins/third-party-patches. No voting
procedure can ever over throw the power of the maintainer (but a wise
maintainer listens to his/hers users/co-developers).

When it comes to the priority-plugin issue it was Peter who asked me to
create a patch that added the priority feature into the core so I would like
his ruling in this matter before anything is considered to be decided.

Totaly of-topic:
Is it just me, or is the plugin admin pages not working at the moment ?
I was just about to upload a new version of the email_priority-plugin and
the file manager gave me a nice page of MySQL error messages.
