consider adding 'default' value to attr

[weepy]

ie.

model('Bucket') .attr('count', { default: 0 })

I guess that goes in the plugins section, considering that required is in that case.

Though, personally I would add both natively.

the nice thing about separating them is that you can easily craft your own "version" of model by forking, and adding those plugins as dependencies, removing any boilerplate you didn't want

[weepy]

yes that makes alot of sense. I did investigate that method, but wasn't sure how to go about doing it. The model:initialize event would make this easier.

[tj]

yup need the event first
