I have a 'package' that can create dynamic forms, but like Gary says,
without a package deployment it is tricky to know how to distribute it
to people.
For myself, I just zip up all the files required (keeping the paths)
and then dump it into a new site, then frigg around to make it fit the
look and feel of the site. This is ok for people that are comfortable
in the farcry environment, but once again like Gary says, not a plug
and play solustion.
Likewise I have an FAQ module that has custom types, publishing rules,
permissions, a config and a custom tab... deploying all of that is
quite tricky.
Many moons ago there were discussions of a package format, and I think
an xml format for the package descriptor was suggested also. It might
be worth consulting the archives and pulling these suggestions from the
grave. If anybody is looking at developing something I'd be interested
in lending a hand.
As a side note, the FAQ module was never added to the exchange, though
it was emailed to the relevant persons... anybody know what happened to
it?
