The .install files, the update script and the installer could take some burden of the package maintainers (but might need a command line extension so they can be hooked into their tools).
nothing is stopping you from running drupal on the command line. All you need to do is set some environment variables before you bootstrap. We need meta-data and dependency information before we can do that though. Now that we have modules in their own directories, that entire process can start up again. We also need to tackle individual module versioning. Each and every time a drupal.org module distribution package gets updated with any change whatsoever, a new version needs to be created. -- Adrian Rossouw Drupal developer and Bryght Guy http://drupal.org | http://bryght.com
