I have mixed feelings on this. I think the information is good but I<br>
don't know that I want every producer of modules and patches to do the<br>
same on this list. I think that a g.d.o would be better then I could<br>
subscribe to the group to get the updates for the ones I want to watch.<br>
Others mention Planet but that appears to me to be an aggregate from<br>
any site publishing data about Drupal it might be the place but<br>
subscribe/unsubscribe isn't available for a particular interest.<br>

<br></blockquote><div><br> </div></div>I think it's cool to know who is doing what. It would be neat to actually see a report from other module developers who are releasing work like this, displayed prominently and in an easy to find and follow way. A dedicated group on g.d.o could be a great option. Plus, this could be cross linked with the project pages on <a href="http://drupal.org">drupal.org</a>, for instance. This type of publicity could help people attract more funding for their development work, by helping people get a better understanding for what they are doing in detail over time, for one thing.<br clear="all">
