Reasoning behind PM system? #160

Open perenstrom opened 8 years ago

perenstrom commented 8 years ago

Hi, I'm just about to try this out, and it seems sweet so far! Just the amount of complexity/competence in an Authentication library.

However. I'd like to hear the reasoning behind including an PM feature. In my opinion that has absolutely nothing to do with an authentication system, and I'll probably remove it from the library in my projects.

Any input?

I can't tell you the reason behind the PM feature :sweat_smile:.

But I personally use the PM feature often in Community-based projects, in Small Business projects not so often only if a customer want it :smile_cat: .

But I wouldn't remove it, the PM feature is not so big :smile: (about 250 lines, that's not much), I'm thinking about to write v3 modular to create extensions for logins from google, github etc. and maybe PM, too. Then the developer can choose whether he want the PM feature or not.

A modular system would be great!

And yea, PM doesn't make much sense, but so what :P

A modular system would be nice! And it is mostly the database tables I'm gonna remove to keep the database uncluttered with tables not in use.
