Hi folks,
if you are also signed up to the joomla-dev-framework list, you've seen
my mails with little tasks here and there that you can take up for
JSimpleXML and JForm/JParameter. Here is another one from the luckily
not so long list to get 1.6 to beta status.

In the administrator, there are several modules that are not MVCed yet.
These would need to be changed to work with the new code in 1.6 similar
to the frontend modules. Below is a list of these modules:
mod_latest
mod_login
mod_online
mod_popular
mod_submenu
mod_title
mod_toolbar
mod_unread

Don't be intimidated by this list. You don't have to do all these
modules at once, just do as much as you are able to do. As always, send
a short note to the list if you are taking up a module and later send in
the patch via the 1.6 Feature Patch tracker:
http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/tracker/?action=TrackerItemBrowse&tracker_id=8549

Thanks for your help!

Hannes

I don't think that it's necessary redo the mod_title, mod_toolbar and
mod_unread

I've done mod_title, mod_toolbar and mod_unread for completeness and
to allow for template overrides.

Thanks Nabyl

Both committed. Just needed a little code formatting. Main things to
watch are using real tabs for indents and Docblocks.

Thanks Joe.

Altered mod_unread a bit - added a helper to be consistent. Otherwise good job.

Thanks Jonnathan

Mod Submenu accepted.

Note to all, submenu is now asynchronous and the component must build
it independently of what is in the main admin menu.

Would you like to go through all the module, frontend and backend and
check that the XML files have all the <files> tags filled out
correctly?

Thanks in advance.

I'm working on that right now, and i have a small question to be sure, the XML tags <files> must list all the contents of a given module, or a single tag <filename> pointing to file "mod_example.php is enough?

We should have each file and folder related to that module list.

so
<filename>mod_example.php</filename>
<folder>tmpl</folder>

etc.

<filename>mod_example.php</filename> for files in root folder.
Fles in subfolders must be written in the same manner as for J1.5?
E.g <filename>tmpl/default.php</filename>

I should have specified...

if you use <folder>, you don't have to specify the files in that folder.

+        <folder>tmpl</folder>
+        <filename>tmpl/index.html</filename>
+        <filename>tmpl/default.php</filename>

becomes

+        <folder>tmpl</folder>

Anything else to do ? Good thing would be to paste the ToDo list of remaining tasks to complete the beta version.
