Community module means the maintainer still has not agreed to spend time dealing with all the details of the module, that the module is now, possibly not tested enough and so on. Another though, when approaching an open source project you should have a different stance than with a commercial product, the question is not really how much you can get from the project but also how/what you can contribute as well. You're already contributing by reporting issues for example. If you're not happy with the community nature of the project you can flip cards and turn it into a commercially supported one (see the commercial support page) so that you pay for a service and naturally you can ask that things get done to your satisfaction and within specific deadlines :-) Cheers Andrea -- ------------------------------------------------------- Ing.
