Some time ago, it was suggested that Wishcraft team up with "module buddies" that would benefit module creation/revision with his conceptual/technical/programming strengths, and supplement it with their more thorough follow-through strengths.

Recently, when trying out the X-Payments module, I was delighted to have everything work correctly.... this from someone that stopped trusting any module prefaced by the letter X.

On closer look, it was noticed that this module version (originated by Wishcraft) was associated with several names supporting the module , including Wishcraft, Mariann (themer) if I remember, Mamba, and someone else.

This was a good example of successful cross disciplinary module development (teamwork) as you mentioned, that while worked for Wishcrafts situation, would make perfect sense for just about any other module.

Prioritizing resources by module value would make it manageable.

What a difference. I need to spend some serious time under the 2.6 hood. I have been away for tooo long.

Hello RHR,

That captures the essence of this whole thread, and the desired direction very well.

Smarty V2 to V3 learning curve is another dimension that theme designers have on their plate, possibly affecting 2.57X vs 2.6 compatibility. According to two reports, V3 is said to be mostly backward compatible with V2 so for those who have worked consistently with V2, it is probably just an incremental adjustment.

Although I have 2.6 A3 up and running, I have not yet checked to see whether theme related content (including that of standard modules) were any different from that of 2.5.7X release.

This free coders cheat sheet reference is made available by OWASP.org. For XOOPS core and module developers who may learn something new from the best practices of a vast web security community, here is the link:

Cheat Sheets pdf

The rest of the site if full of good stuff, especially if you host with Apache.

Consider the above question withdrawn. Feel free to delete the post. I trust everything is going along as it should, and I will just have some fun shaking it down and reporting the results.

I have this up and running now. Any projection as to when this is expected to go Beta on the timeline? Or is it progress dependent with no deadline?

Good for you Mister. I wouldn't expect anything less. XOOPS is fortunate to have such a focused, temperate and optimistic diehard.
