Module development and code questions

I am having trouble figuring out what MassMailer adds to PHPList. Is it only an interface or is there some functionality there?

On a side note, this is typical of the problem I have reading Drupal documents. Components are labeled as doing WXYZ, but YZ is really done by another component, and it's never really clear who does X without reading the full documentation.

i realise 4.7 is still beta

but, there's several modules for 4.7 that require the image module (and talk about it)
but there's no image module for 4.7 - and the 4.6 one just doesn't work.

so - what's the deal? I'm confused.

Hello,

I've just finished writing a filter that transforms an article from XML into HTML. (If you are curious about WHY: it's the internal article format used in Free Software Magazine).

Now: I am _extremely_ concerned about server performance. I simply cannot afford to do one transformation every single time an article is displayed, because it would kill our server (which gets dugg/slashdotted frequently).

Hi,

I'm planning to try any Drupal image galleries module but i'm not sure which one is working module. This is for my personal images posting and having different galleries on my family website. I've tried with image module so far and i could not able to create perfect gallery using this alone. Hence i'm looking experienced views on existing Drupal modules. I've tried Gallery 2 also and i'm not able to configure or install it cuz i'm getting this error whenever i try to launch it.

I want to develop a module.
Any suggestions on what kind?
I am a begginer.

Hello,

I'd like to add an extra tab in the "my account" page.

The module profile.module does that (it adds additional user information, and to do so adds a tab to the page).

I couldn't figure out how to do it from the source code.

In my case, I will show a custom page showing specific information about what articles the person is working on, etc.

Any ideas?

Bye,

Merc.
