Smart-Thinker Events Module Certified by DotNetNuke
We are pleased to announce that on the 23rd of the July, 2006, the Smart-Thinker Events module (version 1.0.5) was certified as passing the high-quality steps set by the DotNetNuke Review Program. You can verify this by clicking on the logo below. Thanks to the core team for the great job they have done with this and it will another big step forward to push DotNetNuke into the mainstream.

If you are a module vendor then I encourage you to get reviewed now! I believe this will raise the standard of DNN Modules and start eliminating the "fly-by-night" module developers and separate modules into the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. To give an idea of the stringent checks required you can read more about it here.

Over the next few months all Smart-Thinker modules will be reviewed as a sign of our commitment to producing high-quality, certified products.
