Hi,

I've just come across Used Modules, and it seems very similar to Enabled Modules (http://drupal.org/project/enabled_modules).

I haven't had a detailed look at the code for Used Modules yet, but it sounds like these projects could be ideal candidates for amalgamation given the overlap.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Julian

Enabled Modules is far better than Used Modules.
The point of using Views clearly makes that one far extensible and it also supports D7.

Used Modules should be marked as deprecated in favor that module.

If people do want to focus on enabled modules, I'd suggest we do a push of creating issues to ensure that enabled modules either covers everything that used modules does, or actively defines them as out of scope.

better yet, there's a new module around.

its called Views System.
reportedly it does the same as enabled_modules and used_modules and yet, more.

merge the modules?
deprecate in favor of Views System?
efforts could be in for just 1 module, with all the devs united for that goal.

please explain why that should not happen, if you don't agree
