Ask HN: What would an MVR mean to you?

For me, it would be having released at least one function which provided some use or was an example of something people struggle with, E.G. Best practices in your language.

Personally, I have never opened a Github account, but if I had to I would include a useful 120 line PHP function which abstracts away the standard PHP FTP functions and lets you use it in a much more human way:

$result = advancedExtractor("ftp.example.com", "localUsername", "localPassword", array(

"upload" => array("localFile" => "/www/var/mylocalserver/public_html/mylocalfile.php", "remoteFile" => "/www/var/theremoteserver/public_html/theremotefile.php"),

"download" => array("localFile" => "/www/var/mylocalserver/public_html/mylocalfile.php", "remoteFile" => "/www/var/theremoteserver/public_html/theremotefile.php"),

"delete" => array("remoteFile" => "/www/var/theremoteserver/public_html/theremotefile.php","backup" => "no") ));

Not only does this make it quicker and easier for me to FTP files, it allows me to zip and unzip files locally and remotely, easily collect errors from the FTP at every stage (an array is returned at the end with simple status codes, 0 for unable to connect, 1 for connected and done properly, 2 for connected and there was an error.)

But this is off topic, simple put, anything which any other person would find useful would be an acceptable submission.
