fax

I am a student that is interested in doing a Drupal project for the SoC 2008. Here is an idea I've had for a Fax module. Please give feedback!

To start, the module would use an API like InterFax (http://www.interfax.net/en/dev/index.html). It could also be coded to allow for different API's to be implemented easily. Some possible features are:

• Fax Drupal nodes
• Fax Drupal views
• Fax binary files (.doc, .pdf, images)
• Anything that could be sent over e-mail can also be sent over fax

I have started a Hylafax integration module. So far, so good. However, I am a little lost as to how I should handle the user authentication? Right now, I am considering attempting to keep the drupal users who are priviledged in sync with the faxusers on Hylafax. Hmm...perahps this should be seperate. Thoughts?
