frankly, not. if a plugin is carrying a module to import, it's because it's tested (and fixed) on that module version. Having them fetch all from a central repo would resort in having django-like environments where a plugin requires version x.y.z and another x.y.z-1 , that gives pretty serious headaches. The naming on plugins for web2py is just a standard convention (i.e. creating controllers that starts with plugin_*), to avoid interference between each others and the app they're installed into. -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
