"Content Complete" for custom Member Profile Modules/Forms... "Module Completeness"?
In my usage of Drupal I have come to really like the Content Complete (http://drupal.org/project/content_complete) module that looks at the fields, including CCK of a node, and displays in a block what still needs to be completed.
I am now working with a client who has their member profile in a custom module, as it does have a lot of stuff going on from being able to ad contact to one's profile, etc. etc. in which the Profile module or Content Profile module are not sufficient (and even if they were, it would be a bunch of work to get their site working under those, and no time for that now).
The client wants users to be able to see how many fields of their profile, of our custom member_profile module, need to be filled out, etc.
So...........
I've been trying to figure out how to turn Content Complete into a program that instead of looking at a node's CCK, it looks at a module's hook_scheme to get the fields it populates for a user (must have a uid column), then let admin select which ones are needed for completeness, and then show completeness meter in blocks.

I store all my updated themes and modules in my SVN repository.
How can I get Aegir to recognize my themes and modules from an SVN repository, so I can use them to migrate a new site?
Example of where a theme is stored:
svn+ssh://user@server/var/lib/svnroot/drupal/themes/drupal_6/production/basic
Example if where my themes are stored for a specific platform on my aegir server:
/var/aegir/drupal-6.16/sites/default/themes
EDIT: Changed theme path

Read moreMaestro: Advanced Workflow Module Proposal
Maestro is a workflow module for Drupal which is in development by Nextide. We have created a design spec for this application, which we would like to share with the Drupal community for feedback. Maestro will be based on an existing workflow application Nextide has developed on another OS platform. Rather than a simply porting over the application, we would like to take the right steps to ensure it is properly integrated into Drupal.
For a quick 2 minute introduction of what Maestro is, check out our video
Read moreModule list
Hi,
I miss a list of modules related with social networking. I can't find such list.
Instead, I have to dig through forums and search results on the group (and in the net) and hoping I use the correct words to get all the interesting modules available.
I think it would be of interest of everyone on this group to have an updated list of modules available and their state of development and maintenance. I suggest that could appear as one of the blocks on the sidebar on the right hand side.

Read moreContributed Modules Used by Whitehouse.gov
I and many others have asked for a list of the contributed modules used to build Whitehouse.gov. After it was pointed out to me that David Cole had displayed the list in one of his slides at DrupalCon—San Francisco, I found the archived presentation video, viewed it, and paused on that frame until I had my best guess of what each fuzzy entry said. Then I confirmed names by crosschecking that list against the list on Drupal.org of all modules available for Drupal 6. For all who are interested, this post not only lists these modules but also links to the respective project page for each module.
If you are looking into creating a "Government" distribution profile, this should give you a good start.
Where plans for Drupal 7 are to move all or part of a module into core, I have noted that next to the respective entry. Generally when only part of a module will be moved into core the remaining components will continue to be available for Drupal 7 on the same project page as before.

I've written a blog post describing the modules and what they do:

There's still a lot of work to be done to improve the code and to make it readily usable on other website. I'm looking forward to seeing your comments, advice, code patches, etc.
Read moreAdd-on for Boost to cache images
I would like to use Boost to create a completely exportable site mirror (as detailed in the Boost Handbook at http://drupal.org/node/583264#rsync). But Boost does not cache images, only HTML, CSS, and JS.
I have already mostly completed work on a module that uses Boost's hook_boost_preprocess() hook to grab the images out of the page being cached, and then adds some lines to the generated .htaccess rules to handle the additional file types. The user can list which image file types will be cached, based on file extensions.
