Adding modules to the shared pool

Criteria

1. Re-usability
2. Stability
3. Project Health

Process

• Don't do it yourself, please!
• Propose module additions via email to the UCSF Drupal Devs List - [email protected]

Module maintenance in the shared pool

• Security updates take precedence
• Handled by ITS (no exceptions!)

Process

0. ITS reviews and commits module updates to repo
1. Announcement to UCSF Drupal Devs listserv
2. Check your dev/test sites
3. Deployment to prod, check there again.
