[D6] Send to Kindle [#1180424]

Applying for full project status.
This module adds a "Send to Kindle" button to the webpage shown to the user. You can select on a content-type basis which nodes should have the button displayed on it.

It is different from the http://drupal.org/project/readability_button module in that this module shows the "Send to Kindle" button from Readability.com and it allows you to select by content-type (so that all nodes of a particular content-type will have the button with minimal setup on the part of the site owner).

Interesting! Updating priority according to priority guidelines. The application's priority should be set back to normal once a reviewer responds to your application and the application review process has continued.

Hi,

It is different from the http://drupal.org/project/readability_button module in that this module shows the "Send to Kindle" button from Readability.com and it allows you to select by content-type

According to the Readability Button project page you can enable the button on a per-content type basis and it also has the send-to-Kindle button. So is the only difference that with this project there's only a send-to-Kindle button? If so, I wonder if it might not be better to supply a patch to Readability Button that allows you to show only the send-to-Kindle button. Or is there also some other difference?

Thanks

As was noted in #2, the http://drupal.org/project/readability_button module seems to do all this. PLUS, readability_button has a Drupal 6 and a Drupal 7 version. If you think that module should have the option to show only the "Send to Kindle" button, then you should post an issue in the issue queue for Readability Button and make that feature request. You can even contribute a patch to that module if you're interested in helping out. As far as I can tell, the proposed project is a less-capable duplicate of an existing project, and I recommend not approving this application. If that's not the case, please provide a more detailed description of why you think the best course is to create a second module rather than collaborating to make the existing module better.
