Personally, I think this is an issue best handled by the oft- discussed but not-yet-implemented golden/recommended/endorsed/first class citizen contrib concept.
We're not going to have such concept. We might have ratings but nothing official.
I have often talked about this. But I also have NEVER meant for this to be part of the code/technical infrastructure. Want your module "golden"? * address issues in the tracker in a reasonable timeframe * be ready for the release of Drupal by the RC stage * add unit testing (simpletest) and/or black box testing (selenium) * use proper Drupal APIs (theme functions, connect with other modules, etc.) * make your module kick ass If you do all of the above, I, personally, will ship you a certificate with the name of the module and a big gold star on it. Note: may or may not be legal in some states or jurisdictions. Also, Derek's work on CVS / Project means we can do per-module revisions. My initial push for "golden" modules was in fact related to such a concept. -- Boris Mann Vancouver 778-896-2747 San Francisco 415-367-3595 Skype borismann http://www.bryght.com
