Hi Jasha, Thanks for the quick responding.
The reason to throw a pipeline when we send a newletter is to make some modifications in the repository (typically rename a folder, create a folder and a new file in it). So each time you send a newsletter, we rename the old folder and we create a new "current" folder where authors can create content for the next newsletter. Doing this we keep easily a trace of all the newsletter. Next, you are talking about an api for the community apps. Have you got any idea when it will be available (by mail) because we are in plan to start the development very soon ;-) Thanks 10x, On Thu, Mar 6, 2008 at 11:56 PM, Jasha Joachimsthal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi David, > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: donderdag 6 maart 2008 9:38 > > To: Hippo CMS development public mailinglist > > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: [HippoCMS-dev] community apps > > > > Hi folks, > > > > We are using the hcamanager and more specifically the > > newsletter manager into one of our project.
