Just a thought  Although the SDK is pretty fast, the main class does have quite alot of functions which are rarely used. The biggest example is the PM functions, which I implemented sometime around Version 0.2, before we had modularization.By modularizing the PM section, this would probably cut out about a quarter of the code from the main SDK file, so there should be some performance benefit in it. Those who want to use PM functions will need to call the factory method first, before calling any functions. Instead of $SDK->add_pm_folder("New Folder"), for example: $pm =& $SDK->factory("PM"); $pm->add_folder("New Folder"); The same could probably be done for other functions such as emailing etc. If BC is a problem, the old methods in the SDK class can be depreceated but simply provide an interface to the modularized code. As an example:

humm that would be a good idea... and it would cut down on the class file being soo big...

umm, update on this...
i will go for modularisation... *but* you won't have to change the way you call the functions... the SDK will instantiate classes as and when you need them.... isn't it clever?
