Hello All,

I am new to DNN. I checked DNN 4.3.5 to 4.4.4. In DNN 4.4.0 modules list I don't see: Contacts, Events, Feedback, Gallery, Help, Store and What's new. I asked about it. The answer was that these modules don't stand in DNN standards. Shall I look to buy them from snowcovered.com? or use the modules as they are?
Can someone go over the missing DNN 4.4.0 modules and tell for every module why it was not included? What is wrong with Events? Feedback and so on?

Thanks for your help
Nir

I think this is a very good question (and it 's been asked a lot)
Could somebody please say something "official" about the future of these modules?
Now it seems ErikVB is answering all kinds of questions about this, maybe it would be good to have one post with all the info...?

1. Why is the module removed?
2. Will the modules be upgraded to meet the DNN standards?
3. Is the "missing" functionality available in other core modules that are included?

    Contacts
    Events
    Feedback
    Gallery
    Help
    Store
    What's new

Thanks Timo, for this request and link to all related posts ;)

I will try to write a blog about this somewhere this week. (If you think anything i say is official enough that is ;))

I hope for next versions we can implement some better way of informing the community about changes like these. Already, work is done to create "real" release notes, in the sense that all issues worked on will get a release note comment when they are committed. You should expect to see proper release notes later on. However, disapearing modules is something that will not be covered with this, so we need an extra way of getting stuff like this in the release notes.

I will also bring this to the attention to the QA team...

Regarding contacts: development terminated, there will be a sunset release to migrate data to UserDefinedTable.

Erik, you are "official" enough to me...
I just didn't want to sound like "Erik, write a text", although I kind of knew in advance who was going to do this...
And, thanks a lot for you good work (Sebastian too)
