From Scripts to Modules
When I wrote my post on the PowerShell Audit Reports, it caught the attention of Thomas Lee who decided to take them up and package them into a PowerShell v2 module.
The output of his work is shown on his blog and I think it provides a very nice example for getting from a script repository to a distributable module. I could definitely see the value of this as many of the scripts I use today I share with my coworkers. This would allow me to “package” together these scripts into releases to be distributed.
Good stuff.

Thanks for the mention. The Audit Report scripts just jumped out as a great example of V1 approach that could be morphed into a V2 module. And being fairly short, it made a great test of CTP3.
I’m really excited about the module concept.
