+**Friendika Addon/Plugin development**
+
+This is an early specification and hook details may be subject to change.
+
+Please see the sample addon 'randplace' for a working example of using some of these features. The facebook addon provides an example of integrating both "addon" and "module" functionality. Addons work by intercepting event hooks - which must be registered. Modules work by intercepting specific page requests (by URL path). 
+
+You must register all addons/plugins with the system in the .htconfig.php file.
+
+     $a->config['system']['addon'] = 'plugin1name, plugin2name, another_name';
+
+Plugin names cannot contain spaces and are used as filenames. Each addon must contain both an install and an uninstall function based on the addon/plugin name. For instance "plugin1name_install()". These two functions take no arguments and are usually responsible for registering (and unregistering) event hooks that your plugin will require. The install and uninstall functions will also be called (i.e. re-installed) if the plugin changes after installation - therefore your uninstall should not destroy data and install should consider that data may already exist. Future extensions may provide for "setup" amd "remove". 
+
+
+
+Register your plugin hooks during installation.
+
+    register_hook($hookname, $file, $function);
+
+$hookname is a string and corresponds to a known Friendika hook.
+
+$file is a pathname relative to the top-level Friendika directory. This *should* be 'addon/plugin_name/plugin_name.php' in most cases.
+
+$function is a string and is the name of the function which will be executed when the hook is called.
+
+
+Your hook callback functions will be called with at least one and possibly two arguments
+
+
+    function myhook_function(&$a, &$b) {
+
+
+    }
+
+
+If you wish to make changes to the calling data, you must declare them as
+reference variables (with '&') during function declaration.
+
+$a is the Friendika 'App' class - which contains a wealth of information
+about the current state of Friendika, such as which module has been called,
+configuration info, the page contents at the point the hook was invoked, profile
+and user information, etc. It is recommeded you call this '$a' to match its usage
+elsewhere.
+
+$b can be called anything you like. This is information which is specific to the hook
+currently being processed, and generally contains information that is being immediately
+processed or acted on that you can use, display, or alter. Remember to declare it with
+'&' if you wish to alter it.
+
+**Modules**
+
+Plugins/addons may also act as "modules" and intercept all page requests for a given URL path. In order for a plugin to act as a module it needs to define a function "plugin_name_module()" which takes no arguments and need not do anything.
+
+If this function exists, you will now receive all page requests for "http://my.web.site/plugin_name" - with any number of URL components as additional arguments. These are parsed into an array $a->argv, with a corresponding $a->argc indicating the number of URL components. So http://my.web.site/plugin/arg1/arg2 would look for a module named "plugin" and pass its module functions the $a App structure (which is available to many components). This will include:
+     $a->argc = 3
+     $a->argv = array(0 => 'plugin', 1 => 'arg1', 2 => 'arg2');
+
+Your module functions will often contain the function plugin_name_content(&$a), which defines and returns the page body content. They may also contain plugin_name_post(&$a) which is called before the _content function and typically handles the results of POST forms. You may also have plugin_name_init(&$a) which is called very early on and often does module initialisation. 
+
+
+
+**Current hooks:**
