<div dir="ltr">Nancy, thanks a lot for following this recommendation. I hope that everyone sees the benefits of announcing a module before development and I hope all other developers follow Nancy's footsteps in this regard. Perhaps reconsidering the idea of making this compulsory would be a good idea.<br>
<br>I do not want to get into this conversation again, but simply trying to emphasize to everyone the benefits gained and trying to show that this cannot be considered raising the barrier for existing/potential developers.<br>
<br>Regards,<br>AA <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Dec 17, 2009 at 4:45 AM, Ken Rickard <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:agentrickard@gmail.com">agentrickard@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
Always.<br>

Menu Node Views is a merged project for all things menu-related, so it<br>
