Just a quick note of clarification -- I wasn't trying to imply that core should be SO stripped down tat we have NO modules. What I meant to ask was, 'What criteria make one module core-worthy but not another?' I think a much-streamlined core, with a secondary package of 'community tools,' or perhaps a 'Classic Drupal' module pack, would be a great step. But I've said that before. :) -Jeff -----Original Message----- From: Derek Wright [mailto:derek@dwwright.net] Sent: Tuesday, May 02, 2006 10:16 PM To: development@drupal.org; kb@2bits.com Subject: Re: [development] Time to remove poll module from core On May 2, 2006, at 8:05 PM, Khalid B wrote:
In another thread Derek asked why core has modules at all.
that wasn't me. i believe you're thinking of jeff eaton. i think drupal's "core" should contain some modules, even ones beyond the required 4 or 5. but, i'm in support of reducing the # of modules in core, and distributing the work of maintaining modules that are important, but not necessarily "core".
