In your module tutorial (http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/development/extensions/module/module_tutorial_part_1), you say the following:

...
Then we create folder under the "standard" design.
/design/standard/templates/mymodule/
Inside folder: extension/mymodule/modules/mymodule,
we put all the files expect the "list.tpl" and "module.ini.append" -files.
Inside folder: extension/mymodule/settings,
we put the module.ini.append file.
Inside folder: /design/standard/templates/mymodule/,
we will put the list.tpl -file.
...
Why do the list.tpl file have to be in the /design/standard/templates folder? Why can't the tpl be in /extension/myModule/design/standard/templates?

I thought the main reason for the extension system, was to seperarate the extensions for easy install.

PS! When is Part 2 coming (since it is called Part 1)
