While we remain in svn, those without full commit privileges still need a way 
to get module names.  c...@openmrs.org<mailto:c...@openmrs.org> is a limitation 
only if there are too few people checking it or too few people with the 
privilege to create a new module.  I've never had a problem with it, but maybe 
if we moved it to JIRA like the ITSM tasks, pending requests would be more 
noticed (or even automatable).

If/as we move to git, there is no longer any need to assign module names except 
to avoid duplication, in which case a simple wiki page list would suffice, as 
suggested by Ben.  We wouldn't have to import the module itself into the 
OpenMRS repository until it was ready to be exposed to the community - although 
it would be nice to be able to follow work in progress to the extent the module 
creator is willing to expose it.

Subject: Re: [OPENMRS-DEV] Belated request for module ids

I still think we need some sort of central way of seeing at least most of what 
is out there.  But I agree that "c...@openmrs.org<mailto:c...@openmrs.org>" is 
potentially a bottleneck.

Perhaps just a wiki page describing all the "rules" we have about a module id?  
That page could have a simple list of moduleids - descriptions so devs can see 
if the one they want to use is already used.   Since we have svn, git, and 
other external locations for modules that people can place them, its up to them 
to decide.

I don't think adding a uuid is really necessary.  If two devs create a module 
with the same id, the first one will be able to upload to the module repo.  
They second will have to choose to host elsewhere or change their id.

Has anyone ever created a script to help rename a module id easily?

To add on to that, I can get a module id of providermanagement blessed for the 
Provider Management module?  This module adds a new object, Provider Role, 
which is linked to a Provider via a column it adds to the Provider table.  A 
Provider Role can be associated with Provider Attributes, Relationship Types 
(to specify different types of supported Provider/Patient relationships), and 
other Provider Roles (to define allowed Supervisor/Supervisee relationships 
between Provider Roles).  The module provides an API and UI to manage providers 
and provider relationships.  The module is not yet complete, but I will be 
doing a work-in-progress demo on the Developers's Call next Thursday.
