For reference, the application was <a href="http://drupal.org/node/578596">http://drupal.org/node/578596</a>.<br><br>And the point that could have been better made is that should we allow each tiny module to add SimpleNews subscription forms to a single module's code? Or should there maybe be a sub-module of SimpleNews that allows users to add subscription checkboxes to any form or page and would be infinately more useful to the community?<br>
<br>Also the module provided for review was sloppy, and limited to only one newsletter, and as someone pointed out, didn't even work. But again, that never made it into the review.<br><br>Also please see my earlier points about community needing to get involved with reviews. You can point out things that went wrong all day, but until you provide reasonable and actionable solutions, nothing is going to help.<br>

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt;">So, here's another
example (I think) of what I would consider CVS censorship. I've spent a
couple hours already today trying to get a simplenews subscription
checkbox onto the Ubercart checkout. Found the function in simplenews,
but it has a parm that I can't find the source of, etc. Busy work that
I don't need. </p>

</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt;">I find an entry at
Ubercart after much searching, for a module that was developed -just
for this- requirement. It adds a simplenews newsletter subscription
pane to the checkout process.</p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt;">Here is the author's
explanation of why it's listed there and not at <a href="http://drupal.org" target="_blank">drupal.org</a>:</p>

</p>
<p>"I think the module was a bit too simple to put on the main Drupal
site (my application for a CVS account was rejected <img src="cid:part1.04010807.03090502@ayendesigns.com" title="Smiling" alt="Smiling"> so I'll put it here instead."</p>
