Hi Charlie, I meant to discuss more on the 'core' concept than about which modules... But anyway I'd just propose some module that creates simple node types on the fly -only with a new name- I've heard of, but I haven't seen yet :-) -- Then we can drop story, page, blog.... Karoly Negyesi wrote:
The problem is: currently we are pretending Drupal -core- to be too many things at the same time, mostly that great developer platform (1), but also an out of the box ready to use community portal (2) or kind of that. And the consequence is we are handling too many issues when fixing bugs for 'Drupal core' that are too specific of some more 'user level, site specific' modules.
Without a doubt, blog or aggregator is not the same level of functionality as node or taxonomy not to mention the required modules.
Here is a proposed core set:
block comment filter help locale (because this lets you change strings so its always useful) menu node path search story system taxonomy throttle upload user watchdog
(hope I have not missed any required ones :) )
