Description
Since "It is recommended that you only upload modules from trusted sources such as drupal.org.", perhaps a list of such sources could be added to the interface? This would function somewhat like Firefox's extension sources gizmo I suppose.
The module could come with drupal.org as a pre-approved source, with options to add and remove sites from the list. Seems like it would be relatively trivial to implement (he said, again).
#1
Yeah, that sounds like one good idea. There's a number of ideas I've been thinking of to try to make this module more secure. I put out the initial release to get its basic functionality tested,
#2
Ok I'll give the module a whirl tonight, hopefully more ideas will become obvious.
Am I correct in assuming that this module is really best used on its own in a standalone Drupal setup? I mean, it serves no other purpose that to do these builds, right?
#3
Pretty much. Its possible to upgrade existing modules too (I have only done a few test cases with this), but it seems upgrading would only be useful for live sites that shouldn't really have this code running on it in its current state.
