Hi, i am a joomla user for years & just moved towards DNN (without any doubt) as both are one of the best solutions any developer can ever have.

But, quite amazingly, all the modules in the modules directory are commercial ones & hardly found any usefull free module, as in contrast with the joomla extensions community.

This definately will draw me back to joomla, just because of this reason only.

Modules like Knowledgebase, custon form, user profiles, to name a few, should have been provided to the DNN users by other developers & should have supported the community.

I do understand that it is fairly new CMS as compared to others, but still atleast a community of opensource developers could have come forward for the same.

Well, just a tought, anyway.

Cathal,

I use your module list non-stop.  I don't know where I would be without it!  Thanks so much for the resource.

My point is still untouched.

Lets take it in this way.

Can you develop a site with custom registration form, with a community of friends, with groups facility, without having to develop module on ur own or without purchasing any module?

you wont in DNN, but in many of the other CMS systems.

The long list free modules on CATHAL is just nothing but the list of Accesories, you can always do ur job without them.

I was so excited to make a move towards DNN, & was so dishearted to see that inspite of LARGE (may be maximum that any other programming language) number of dotnet developers, DNN is still deprived of free modules. No free CMS is complete without free modules, & these free modules comes from the indidual developers who have already faced problems & would like to help others.

The functionality of DNN to me is just limited or I should spend 100's of dollars to buy those expensive modules listed on snowcovered.com

I know many of u will not agree with my point, but thats wat i have experienced.

My project is still in suspended state
