This is a heavily commented "skeleton" of a plug-in module with an admin panel, and is designed to be a good starting point when you want to write a module of your own. It contains a lot of hard-learned lessons, and should speed your development time significantly.
It's on the Wiki and cmsmodules.com.
As usual, I welcome comments, suggestions, etc.

Re: Skeleton Module
wow.
that explains a LOT
thanks SjG!!
i might able to actually write a module now.
BTW, anyone, can you point me to a list of all the default blocks available in cmsms?
the documentation seems to be scarce.

Re: Skeleton Module
Yeah, we really need to document that... and a ton of other stuff too. 

Re: Skeleton Module
Hey wishy, i am not too shabby at technical writing and documenation. the only problem is i don't know enough about how the system works to start.
given a list of default tags (like cms_selflink, cms_module, html_blob) and their parameters, i am pretty sure that i can determine what they do, and write some documentation.
I am willing to contribute, but need a starting point. like a list of things to document. (specific things, like the built in tags)
let me know.
