"idea" modules info
Speaking of modules...
I *could* be willing to implement the following two modules, if the
ideas happen to match what I think I would need.
> RoleAuthz i Role-based authorization DOUGM
> ConfigDBI i Config via DBI and <Perl> MARKIM
What is the usual process for one that would like to help with a "i"
module? Is there any code done, or some message/thread that I could be
pointed to, discussing the idea, things like that?
Thanks for the info!

Any pointer to information?

Okay, no problem. Could you write up a quick summary of how it worked
(or how a rewrite should work)? If that was discussed on this mailing
list already, you could give me a pointer to a thread instead...

I don't even have the code any more -- it was written three jobs ago and
the company it was written for doesn't even exist anymore. :) Sorry.

Send it to me, I'll take a look! I don't garantee I can take it over,
but if I use it, I probably will be able to maintain it (as part of my
day job).

I developed some code to do this a VERY long time ago, but the code was
quite specific to my needs (virtual hosting) and I never got around to
generalizing it. If you're interested in taking over the module list
entry for this one, I have absolutely no problems with that.
