I do not offer my opinions often, as I constantly remind myself that the abilities of this group far exceed those of my own, but...
Definition of 'Plum supported hacks' has to be: Those modifications which must be analyzed and eventually documented by Adam and David on their own time. Although I am only beginning my learning experience with Plum, this seems one-sided at best to expect on a continuing basis. They (Adam and David, that is) have already voiced their intent to make version changes in the future with enhanced abilities based on the feedback received from this great group. This is reasonable. Plum has evolved, and hopefully will continue to evolve. This listserv is a great way for developers to let the guys know what is needed, and to find issues with the current version. But perhaps we could use another layer of support. Would it be possible to have a Plum online site where successful 'hacks' or even minor helpful enhancements could be documented by any authorized user. Custom cfc's could be loaded by the user for the good of everyone. In this way, we could all benefit from other experienced developers who might find alternative means to specific ends. There could also be a place for Adam and David to comment should they wish on the logic--both pro's and con's--of the approach. This is just an idea, and perhaps not needed nor desired. Would it ever be used? Your thoughts, please?
