Is it just me or the past two weeks has there really been a CRAZY amount of new modules being made? Even ignoring all the "sandboxes" and "just testing" the real ones have been a LOT. At least it seems so....
Hard to tell...the new module feed seems to be all sandbox entries now :( On 03/21/2011 04:37 PM, Fred Jones wrote:

Yes, it's flooded by sandboxes. Here's the active issue related to this problem: http://drupal.org/node/1075206 Vacilando On Mon, Mar 21, 2011 at 21:54, <jeff@ayendesigns.com> wrote:

There's an issue for that: http://drupal.org/node/1075206 I happen to be in the middle of researching these numbers. Since sandboxes were opened, there have been an average of about 31 sandbox modules and 7 full modules created per day. I don't have historical numbers, but just quickly looking at today's date last year, there were exactly 7 new modules posted that day. So the rate of new full modules doesn't seem to have gone up significantly. -- Scott Reynen MakeDataMakeSense.com On 3/21/11 2:54 PM, jeff@ayendesigns.com wrote:

Scott, Awesome. I love real data! Anybody know if we can have the sandbox modules pulled out as a separate feed? Shai On Mon, Mar 21, 2011 at 5:08 PM, Scott Reynen <scott@makedatamakesense.com>wrote:

Having sandboxes in a separate feed would be good, however its still good to have them on d.o. There are some interesting projects going up in sandboxes, and some are in better condition that existing modules. Xtfer On 22/03/2011, at 8:18 AM, Shai Gluskin wrote:

For my part, with the source being a simple feed, separation would be good, or one that is combined and one without sandbox entries. There are other ways to split the sandbox entries out having received the feed, but the bigger point is I received 21 items and all were sandbox, so splitting them out doesn't help. Additionally, I'd love to see a Services service that allowed me to specify what I want to get back. On 03/21/2011 05:47 PM, Chris Skene wrote:

That begs the question would the sandbox modules have been still on someone's local platform or on d.o. as alpha/beta/dev? On 03/21/2011 05:08 PM, Scott Reynen wrote:

Scott, I hope you can get some historical numbers somehow. When I saw the new procedures, I figured it would greatly slow down the number of new modules. I certainly will think hard about creating any new ones with that procedure in place. On the other hand, I've had several cases in the last month where I knew there was "a module for that," but couldn't find it because project pages are often written to describe the "itch" that spawned it, rather than thinking about how it might be searched for. I did get one maintainer to rework his project page. So I think this should be at least a guideline in the sandbox process - review it for searchability. That could greatly help in reducing duplicates, and increase cooperation on existing modules. Nancy Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. -- Dr. Martin L.
