Module development and code questions

Hello! I'd really like to come up with a module that would publish a "summary" node every week. This would be similar to what comes up every Sunday at http://www.gizmodo.com (as well as other sites), where the node is just a list of dated links to all nodes that were published during the previous week. Ideally, this would be an automated process. Has anybody done anything along these lines and/or could help point me in the right direction? Any guidance you can offer would be most welcome.

Thanks in advance!

I've seen many posts where the user has been looking for a mailing list manager. I too wanted one, so I modified a script I wrote to be a mailing list manager. You can find the module here. Please note that PostGreSQL is required because of the way deletions are handled using foreign keys and the creation of alias maps for Postfix.
Postfix is the second requirement, and it must be compiled with PostGres support. So for all you Gentooers, that's USE="postgres", but I'm sure you already knew that.

I need to pre-set some values on a form. I have a custom module that sets a menu() link to a custom function to do this. It calls node_form() to save me the work of maintaining the form definition in more than one place. By using node_form() I can not pass parameters to form(), and default form action becomes /mymodule/myfunc/myparam, which does not handle post data.

I am solving this by modifying $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] which works, but in my opinion is an ugly hack that I do not like.

Can anyone suggest a better way of setting form "action" parameter?

Hello!

-I'd like to set up a block that displayed the top ten referrers to my site; can anyone recommend a starting place for something like this? Any guidance you can offer would be most welcome.

Thanks,

Say for instance I have 2 sites .
Site1: www.hamaratone.com/drupal (which is already configured)

Site2: www.corpindia.org/cms (which is still not configured)

But I need to keep the installation centralized (i.e both database/drupal modules) and use it to manage the content of the second site).

How do I map the second site's URL

Hi, folks

I just wrote a module that let's me put and present points on geographic (or any other) maps. For the luck of a better name, it's called "geourl", and a demonstration can be seen on my home page: http://www.havlik.org/geourl/maps/AT

The module is really at "quick & dirty" stage now, but it works for me. Question: is anyone else interested in this kind of stuff?
