Hi folks, This is very long time i am posting. I was busy with one Moodle project. i was seating at office and suddenly one thought came in my mind why i am not contributing in Drupal. Finally i decided to contribute Drupal 6 module. I am considering drupal 6 because i know drupal 6 you can say much or less. But the reason of creating discussion is to think some question like which module? what will be the function of that module? what are the approaches? and you can tell me the concept of your module you are thinking but you are busy with some other things. some newbie wanted to share their thought or they wanted to learn how to create and contribute module than this is the opportunity for both who wanted to learn and contribute. i need feedback Druplicon.
Thanks

Well, if you have an idea or two for a module which is not yet available but features required by most of the Drupal site. You ca read posts in communities, watch conversation on IRC and decide what features you want to pack in your module. This is not only about module but you can contribute theme or installtion profile as well provided that those are not already contribted.

We at jybetech worked on an
We at jybetech worked on an drupal 6 distribution for non-profits. We worked on it for quite sometime and later other projects took more focus. Few non-profits took the distribution for their use although doesn't have exhaustive features. If you guys are interested we can resurrect the project or start from ground up starting with discussing the use cases. We can build some custom modules which are required for the organizations. This will benefit both the drupal community and do some good for others.

Drupal 6 module contribution
Let me share one module and i think we should work on it even i wrote some code. The module name will be Tweetnode. I have seen twitter module and module which is related to twitter but i never seen module which actually tweet node just after creating node. Let me explain more.
First simple Approach
Tweetnode module will tweet actual url of node.
After enabling tweetnode module, in tweetnode setting it will show one form where it will ask which node i.e content type you want to enable for tweet, example: page, story etc. And after saving the setting of Tweetnode module one
check box(tweet this) will appear in content type. after saving content twitter site will ask content creator for username and password of twitter account(account information) if account information is right than the node url will be the tweet.
2nd CCK Approach
Everything will be a same but instead of setting form we will create CCK fields, after enabling module we can add field in content type which is check box(tweet this) if check than after saving content it will tweet node url.
what you people think please comment need feedback.
Thanks

Drupal 6 module contribution
I have seen this http://drupaldeveloper.in/ in demo there is retweet tab on header of each node.
its different what i mention in my previous comment. what i mention is when i will create content there will be field called tweet this(check box) like body, title. and in the demo i can tweet but in my module only content creator can tweet.
*_*
That's exactly what it does. If you install the twitter module, you will have a check box on selected content type and when you check it, it will send an update to twitter.
