I don't have any strong feeling about where these should be located-
however there needs to be a low barrier for people posting them, and
they need to be easy to find.  Also, I think there is potentially some
benefit to providing an opportunity for people to make their first
handbook post in the hopes that they will make more and more substantial
ones later.


What would you suggest as an alternative to the handbook?

The list of drupal page snippets [1] (and other snippets) have grown
wild. But essential  information is missing. No mention of the author,
the date submitted, the applicable drupal version, and more. It is
already too large to manage. 


Suggested solutions: Is it possible to make it CCK? to order it by
drupal version? By required components which are needed by the snippet?

responsible authors should tag with the taxonomy term form the relevant
version, though many should be edited and tagged.  Many authors at least
put version info in the comments.  Seems like a starting point is to
check these all for version tagging, and then reorganize them to 3 child
pages for Drupal 4.5/4.6, 4.7, and 5.0.

ok- I started this reorganization.  Everyone should feel free to pitch
in (Drupal.org is running really slow today, I think).

Hi guys,


I like the idea of snippet categorisation..but i think it's a bad idea
to house snippets in the handbook.
