Reduce duplicated functionality

This topic has been discussed before and last time we chose to keep them separate. But nowadays that this concept is implemented and is actively used, some of us have realized that Modules and Plugins are so close technically that the differentiation causes more confusion than practical benefit. So I propose once again to merge Modules and Plugins and use categorization like we do in Downloads section on this site to group plugins by their function in the installer/adminCP, so an administrator can install what he needs easier. May the Source be with you!

камни первые мы уже получили.... от разделения - а преимуществ пока не было. littledev.ru - мой маленький зарождающийся блог о котонти.
снижение стоимости программирования и снижение стоимости производства разные вещи. Первое можно скорее сравнить с раздачей работникам дешевых инструментов, чем со снижением зарплаты |

I strongly object to Modules and Plugins mergence. Кто бездействует, тот не завоевывает

If we are planning for the future are more differences between the modules and plug-in that division should be. For example plug-in performs some system functions: connects JS, performs some validations, plugins executes from hooks. Ie plug-in complements the core or other modules. In this case, combining them would not be correct. I am a supporter of such a path.
Sorry for my English :) Есть миры, не здесь, там, где небеса горят, и моря засыпают, и реки дремлют; люди сделаны из дыма, а города – из песен. Где-то опасность, где-то несправедливость, даже где-то остыл чай. Идем Эйс, у нас много работы!...

Now that I think about it, don't merge them. Just pretend there is another '1' on the 'no' side :)
Also as a suggestion for polls, there should be the ability to change it if you make an error or you change your mind. |

Definitely not. Although the current technical implementation and capabilities of modules and plugins are nearly the same, in the future I would like to see modules get more advanced capabilities, such as an object-oriented model-view-controller structure and object-relational mapping. This is suitable for modules, but not for plugins. Such extended features will make the difference between the two quite clear.

Thanks guys, that makes sense for future branches like 1.5. May the Source be with you!
