Content Submit
When i installed this component, i think that is new and better vertion of famous JA Submit, but i was wrong...

There is no way to let write articles for guests, no captcha, no alert letters sent to admin, NOTHING. This extension not really better then native Joomla submit-from-frontend system.

It doesn't even have configurable options in admin panel, just few in menu link.

Hello! We're not sure why you thought CONTENT SUBMIT would have those features when they're not in the description, nor are we sure why you thought this was a fork of JA Submit (perhaps because they both have "Submit" in their name?). CONTENT SUBMIT doesn't claim to allow guests to submit articles, doesn't claim to have captcha, and doesn't claim to send letters to admins. It only does what it claims to do, which is create a section/category-specific content submission form! Thanks!

JoomPedigrees Manager
Well, i searched for component like this for a long time.
JoomPedigrees really do that he offer, but...i don't lake that JoomPedigrees have many things hardcoded, like species or series. I needed to manually rewrite parts od code to make this component compatible with cavia farm.
I think that this hardcoded parts should be or splited to editable files, or maked configurable

Hi! And Thank you for your interest in this component!

I'm confused as to what you are saying is "hardcoded". If you want to change the text fields simply open the languages/joompedigrees.ini for front end and administrator/languages/joompedigree.ini for back end and change all of the form's text at will.

For example, to change species and series find the lines in the ini
original code:
SPECIES=Species
SERIES=Series
changed code:
SPECIES=Breed
SERIES=
save and return the file to server. Wiping out the text as shown above, after the equal sign, will give you a blank.

Feed2Post
Very, very timesaving extension, but it lacks one feature - feature to filter out needed for posting content via RegExp. And i don't mention filter articles like keywords it do, i mean save in article only those content parts what meets Regular Expression

MovableType XML-RPC Plugin
Absolutely fabulous!
At least, Joomla have way to remotely post, not login in to admin panel.
Save MUCH time!
Some problems - you cannot post directly to front page via xml-rpc and you cannot have "preview part of post and full post"...this make me sad...
Owner's reply

Please use this to frontpage.
http://extensions.joomla.org/component/option,com_mtree/task,viewlink/link_id,3058/Itemid,35/

about introtext and fulltext:
If Zoundry is used and insert extended entry marker is used, it is possible to
do.

Jambook
Works right out of box!
Moreover, it have internal Captcha library, so i still don't need to install monstrous Captcha engine - 1.5 mb is too much for generic shared library.

JoomlaStats
I tried BSQ sitestats first....and Joomlastats after
That can i say:
(+) Jstats have no dependencies on additional components ((-)BSQ need additional component installed first)
(+)Jstats seems to be faster (not slower site loading)
BSQ support creating charts using flash(+), but feature is really buggy(-), and in text mode BSQ summary really poor(-)
On other hand, Jstats provide only statistical tables with lot of information (+), bit sometimes this tables overloaded with unimportant data(-)
BSQ not really stable, then you have a LOT of data BSQ can really stop working or consume too much resources (-)
JStats have no problems with processing data, but it's tables grows really fast
Soo....
Bsq is more easy to use, but potentially troublemaker because tries to use advanced technics like Flash charts
Jstats more standart, but preferable on production sites
---
But i really missing flash charts...
