Getting more of CCK in core would be great. Once more of CCK is in core, we can talk again about profiles. Now, where are the CCK patches? I haven't seen any yet. :-)
Since getting more of CCK into core is, presumably, not a matter of simply copying the contrib CCK, I was wondering if anyone has laid out what exactly needs to be done? I'm not in a position to propose one, but it seems a prioritized task list would be the place to start.
Good question. In fact, after months of bugfixing, I could use an update myself. Hopefully CCK-wranglers like Eaton, Jaza, KarenS and friends might be able to lay out a bit of a plan ...
The big thing that is left is field management.
I'd like to see: - No modules added. I don't think this is a feature that would want to be disabled at the system-level. There are other ways to organize code without adding more modules. - A generic solution that profiles fields work with.
+1. To which I would add, that other modules (e.g. signup, survey modules) can also generically use those fields. Not-a-node can be a good thing, and re-using the same "fields" base is also good. -- Boris Mann Vancouver 778-896-2747 San Francisco 415-367-3595 Skype borismann http://www.bryght.com
