[Phpgroupware-developers] Re: Philipp Kamps

I want to second Alex' enthousiasm about the idea of rethinking and
extending the way categories work in phpgroupware. I think, currently
they are underutilized because a view and an interaction like Philip
proposes is missing. I want to a suggestion that I have already
submitted as a feature request on savannah:
It would be nice if there were a hook for defining data an application
wants to store for a cateogry, and in the administration interface for
categories, application specific input elements are appended to the
standard input elements for defining category name and description.
As an example, in news_admin in HEAD you can configure RSS exports for
each category. Instead of having a separate UI for this configuration,
it could be done on the same page the category is defined.
