Hello,

I've posted a timeline of viewfield development, if anyone is interested:

Cheers,

Update: I've attached a screen shot of viewsfield working with filters. Also pictured: ajaxviews - loading a teaser on top of a views table. Way cool.

Global CCK fields

Merlin just threw me a great idea: attaching a field to a content type that is the same for all instances of that content type. Think of this like a static variable in Java. The entire class shares one value. Each instance can update the data, but it remains the same for all instances.

This is a great alternative to "locked views" in many cases. Though, for now, I'm still going to implement locked views, until we can get node wide data. Probably a core feature.

formatters added
