Hey there,

One drawback to d_h is that you're unable to order the slides – they're just in reverse chronological order. I realize that nodequeue violates the Debut spec, but what about Draggable Views (http://drupal.org/project/draggableviews)? I'd be happy to help implement if you think this would work.

Thanks!

Yes, explicit ordering would be good. I don't know that nodequeue violates the Debut spec. Does it?

Opened this general issue: #1597246: Candidate standard Debut solution: entity ordering/weighing. Could you please briefly analyze there and make a case for a particular solution, like draggable views?

One consideration is that, as we approach a first stable release of Open Outreach, we're trying to minimize reliance on alpha or beta dependencies.

My mistake: it violates the Kit spec, not the Debut spec. From Kit:

8. Problematic components
 -------------------------
 Components that fail to provide proper exportables, especially those using
 serial IDs as the primary method of manipulating and referencing their
 configuration objects, can be critical blockers to a feature's interoperability.
 The following is a list of modules with known interoperability issues:
 
 - `filter`: serial `fid` for input formats
 - `nodequeue`: serial `qid` for nodequeues
 - `taxonomy`: serial `vid` for vocabularies
 - `wysiwyg`: see filter

Will add something on Draggable Views shortly.

Thx. I updated #1597246: Candidate standard Debut solution: entity ordering/weighing with status of exportables in nodequeue.
