I want to work on a Drupal 7 port, so some questions:

* The current code is at drupal-7 branch? It do not install without changes, so i am working on it.
* Can i have write access to cvs? it is easy if i can write the changes to a new branch and you review it latter and commit to dev branch than i do many small patches or some big patches to review.

Hi,

Gerhard (GStegemann) has been doing a great job in getting the first 7.x release ready. Maybe we can list here the issues which need to be fixed/resolved before we can release 7.x-1.0. Then anyone who wants to contribute can easily find what needs to be corrected and/or tested.

I would open a new issue listing the release blockers in the main summary, but at the moment I do not have any content for it. As soon as we get a few issues listed here, I'll start the proper issue.

The only open issues marked as 7.x are:
#2148005: weblinks.weight.inc stores all contributions in sticky 100 and -100
#2172019: Undefined variable: extras in weblinks_content_extra_fields()
#2182063: Remove db_placeholders() function which does not exist in D7

Are there any more which need resolving before we can release D7. Or alternatively, should we list the testing which still need to be covered? Then others can help too.

@Jonathan. Thanks for your kick off and the initial list of open issues.

Issue #2172019: Undefined variable: extras in weblinks_content_extra_fields() is fixed so far. I just left it open because of the open CCK issues, which I committed yesterday.

Other issues I can think of are:

  • Review multi language support,
  • Taxonomy index: when joining nodes check if node revisions needs to be considered?
  • Replacement for Taxonomy Image module, especially API function taxonomy_image_display,
  • Converter sub modules: which ones are still needed? If needed, complete migration and testing,
  • SimpleTest: review test cases, add more/missing test cases?
  • Translations.

And this feature is not solved:

Next, the Alexa pagerank retrieval does currently not work. After Amazon has acquired Alexa this service requires a registration.

In order to use the Alexa Web Information Service, you must first sign up for an Amazon Web Services account, and then subscribe to the Alexa Web Information Service.

So currently this function seems to be useless. Further usage will require an update of the API code and the Access Keys made available to the module. Any activities planned here?
