Description
Hi,
I like the way Trackback handles notifications in a separate content type, but unfortunately it lacks pingback support.
Conversely the Pingback module represents pingback notifications as comments, which I don't like.
So what about adding Pingback support to the trackback module? See #351533: Split out a Pingback API module (Was: More Efficient Display of Pingbacks) for the first step required to do so.
Regards,
Antonio

Please read my latest comment to #351533: Split out a Pingback API module (Was: More Efficient Display of Pingbacks) here: http://drupal.org/node/351533#comment-1857200
If you have skills and time to spend in fixing the 2.x branch... you're welcome! :)

I could try, but what are your plans?
I looked at the code in CVS some days ago and it looks like you are duplicating te code in Pingback.
What about working in Pingback first to split-out/abstract the code there and then just include and reuse it here?
I mean, the two projects just have to agree to a common format for the "pingback object", (source,title,content) just to give a trivial example, and then one module will put this info inside a comment, and the other will put it into a dedicated content type.
What do you think?
