For example, I've been playing with porting over some of my H:W filters, such as a few filters I wrote for dealing with uploaded images.  I have one filter for regularizing uploaded images, which accepts file uploads of standard image types and converts them to a particular size and type.  This is used for creating profile avatars, etc.  However it depends on Imager.pm, which can be difficult to install if you are on a hosted server that doesn't like you compile, so I doubt you'd want it as part of the base.  Maybe things like that could go into a 'HTMLFormfuX' type namespace, and people can install them if they need them?

Since your system can load up from a YAML file we could start a collection of useful YAML and store them someplace in the docs, like a cookbook you could cut and paste.

Hi John,

I would suggest to create a different tree in the current svn (a 
different project would also be possible) where we can collect all these 
modules.

Your second idea of a cookbook is very nice. I thought myself already of 
starting a Manual modul where we could collect FAQ and Cookbook.
But for the next few days/weeks I would wait with this until the 
development settles a littl bit and we are comming to some more stable API.

My two pence, what do you think Carl.

Greets,
Mario
