Display Modules as per admin/build/modules

Thanks Alan!

Agaric needed the basic functionality in the present module, and I spent far longer turning it into a module than we had time for. I'm very glad I did given the interest, but we don't have the time budget to put in every great feature request. And I'm part of the problem: personally I'm most interested in the "recently enabled" administrative aid promised in the module description, and that extends the module in still another direction.

We are happy to take patches; we could take sponsorship (and conversely would contribute financially to another developer or shop putting in the effort); or, if you think there's interest, we could start a Chip-in widget to add these features. I'd like to do that with an eye toward integrating with Update Status (perhaps meaning, since that's where it lives in Drupal 6, inclusion in core), so talking about this possibility with people involved with that module could be a very useful, non-tech role.

These are good suggestions, certainly in the spirit of Enabled Modules, and I will keep them in mind. What I've been trying to say is that on a technical level (in my current view and understanding) it makes more sense to implement them as patches to Update Status than as a separate module.

best,

Thanks for the feedback.
The module is very useful as it is.

My contribution will be limited to cheering from the sidelines, and testing patches, I'm afraid.

Which is great also!

If we do anything it will probably be for Drupal 6 and something of a backport of this core patch proposed for Drupal 7 to add a text file export of the module status page: http://drupal.org/node/99529

Actually, this module should be replaced with one that uses Views 2 to make sortable lists of the modules to display any way you want.
