[Tikiwiki-devel] Modules vs blocks

[Marc L. <ma...@ma...>]

In other CMS software, our "modules" are called "blocks".

Ex.: Postnuke & Xoops
http://www.xoops.org/modules/news/
http://mods.postnuke.com/


"Module" sounds to me more like a feature or a plug-in.
ex.: Postcalendar module, Gallery module

Also, a "block" may contain links/info to one or many "modules".

Block seems more appropriate as a "lego block" which you place
left/right/top/bottom on a page.

What do you think of changing the term from module to block?

Thanks!
