RE: [IPCop-devel] Suggestion to help with add-ons

I think having an Add-ons section that works like the Updates one does is a
great idea.

Hi List...

I noticed that I seem to have killed this thread....
I was the last person to reply & then......Nothing...
It went dead....
But....
for those interested.... I have released a new Add-On
(Plz refer 2 my Post on the Devel List
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=ipcop-devel&m=103583107301847&w=2)
and I think that the technology that we already have in
IPCop is enough to add an Interface for an Add-On
section.....
If you look @ the way I overcame this problem with
my Add-Onz I wanted, I simply butchered the Updates system
Built in to IPCop, and changed it in such a way as to run
with Add-Onz in mind rather than Updates, I still have the
Update system working but now there is a New page called
Add-Ons...
so can we use an Add-Ons system in the same way that
Updates have the 'Info' Link next to them on the Available
list on the Updates page, why not have this same idea but
point the link to the Interface of the Add-On in question ?

Just a suggestion....
what dose the List think ?
Any & all comments welcome...
(Even if to say 'Shut Up' !!)
