Re: [Netjuke-devel] Re: test for echo...

[John W. <jo...@or...>]

This pseudo-module sounds like a great excuse to get services.php up and
running.  Ideally, and I think this can be considered part of the boiler
plate "netjuke philosophy," all external functions will run through the
services api.  I'd be happy to lend my hand at hacking it together, or
not, whatever works for you walkah.

Also, while developing the interface we should keep in mind that someday
I, or whoever beats me to it, will create a netjuke-remote (think
gallery-remote).
