Make modules more findable, and let developers use their judgment in a fully informed manner.
We really need hierarchal tagging of the modules. Having more than 300 in Content on d.o/project/Modules doesn't help me find squat. And what is the difference between ``Content'' and ``Content display''? A search form for just the project nodes would be nice, then I could drill down better.
Side note: Not having *any* metrics for projects on d.o is a very serious problem.
Better no metrics than bad metrics. If, for instance, we rated module quality strictly on the number of open support requests there were in the issue queue, Views would come out as a module to never ever ever use. That would also be quite wrong. :-)
I agree. Any ratings would need to reset with each release as well. Earnie -- http://for-my-kids.com/ -- http://give-me-an-offer.com/
