Module Development
Purpose
This package will automate much of the monotony involved in creating OpenACS packages. It will also allow plug-in functionality so that it can generate code for other things.
Design
This will be a modular design similar to acs-reference where a core module is loaded, and this module will keep track of what “plug-ins” are available.In a second phase, javascript or a tcl plugin will allow more editing. A high level view is as follows: meta-data plugins
Physical Data Model – Generic

mdev_projects holds all the information about a project. In OpenACS terms this is a package.
project_id
project_name --
