I'm on 'em. -- James Walker :: http://walkah.net/
11. album module
i'm abandoning this one. It provides bulk upload and some gallery support. Bulk upload is now provided elsewhere and album's gallery is not worth saving (uses the abandoned folksonomy.module to group image nodes and taxonomy.module for display - i.e. provides nothing on its own). folks are encouraged to use other gallery modules or build a new module.
the also shows something more (to me) * People look for image support [1] * People are looking for old-fashioned publishing mostly (vs technocrati, syndication, flickr integration) * We should evaluate how we can support (*not ship*) wysiwig editing best. Or at least see if core is limiting the use of them, in for example filters or even hooks (user feedback is not too positive on drupals WYSIWYG abilities) [1] Some more detailed questions could be * Did users find the image functionality they needed, or did they download all three indicate that they apperantly were not satisfied with theyr first and hop over to the second, rather. * Are users looking for advanced or simple image stuff (too many users rant about the "cleanness" of image module in forums etc. They want gallery2 alike bloat, so it seems sometimes) * What can we do (in early 4.7) to make sure we have the right (combination of, or recipe for) contribs around that together make a perfect image experience.

Thank you so much for good documentation. Unfortunately, I have already almost finished rewriting the forms code for my module. But I may have to go back and clean things up a bit. I did it all by reading the form.inc file and looking at other modules' form examples. --Vernon
