I just had a thought, while reading the other new posts to this list. =
How about adding an uninstallation facility for the plugins, 'cos I can =
tell for sure that people will often want to install a plugin to test, =
and then want to remove it again if they don't like it.

My thoughts for a plugin architecture (using the system that i designed =
for my own website):
have a seperate section on the main page for plugins where the =
underlying code will
- -  check for directories in (eg) /var/ipcop/plugins
- -  for each directory, check for a file that describes the plugin
- -  display a link using data from the file mentioned previously
- -  on clicking the link, open up (behind the scenes) the plugin file =
and execute it's code to display it's interface
- -  the plugin's interface will allow activation/deactivation of =
anything that needs more setup, eg a cron job

hope that made sense - i used php btw.
