Hello all! I have one more proposal I would like to get out and hopefully implemented before the stable release. Please read over it and let me know what you think: Any directory in your module that is put there to "tie into" another module should be named according to the other module. Case in point is Boost. Right now we have a setup directory that is only used by Boost. This should be renamed to 'boost'. Not only does it make more sense, it also makes it easy to spot which modules are required by your module to run. This naming convention should also apply to the config files in the config directory. The altered file structure would look roughly like this: class => MyModule.php conf => boost.php (currently mod_info.php) layout.php (currently layout_info.php) help.php (currently help_info.php) docs => README.txt INSTALL.txt boost => install.sql uninstall.sql See? Now you can tell which config files are used by which modules a little easier, it allows for scalability as more and more modules are added, and it sets the stage for some more enhancements to boost later on. Of course those changes are another proposal all together :) Let me know what you all think! Cheers!

+1 papa like. Especially since I have a couple of inter-dependent modules on the horizon. Don.

I will start implementation of this on Monday unless there are any objections.

When will these changes go into effect? I see the layout.php one was done today. Just wondering if they are supported now in CVS and I can adjust my module, or if I need to wait for changes or if parts of these changes are being postponed. Don.
