k so let's try this again - I'm sorry (again) to all the (patient) devs using Views Datasource for being very delinquent with this module, albeit not for reasons entirely under my control, but anyway I plan to release brand new D6 and D7 versions with fixes for most of the issues in the queue no later than Friday 4th March. If I don't make this deadline I'll have to enlist a co-maintainer. Thanks to everybody for providing support and patches while I was inactive - I really appreciate it.

Hey Allister, my clock says Friday 4th March ;)

Can you please post updated D6 & D7 devs before actually releasing the stable ones you mean to. You see, I was trying to apply and check out Hovhannes's patch in post #19 over at #981810: views_datasource module Drupal 7 port and I see *A LOT* of tabs instead of spaces + trailing blanks *EVERYWHERE*. I'd like to help by running the devs through coder and then you can release. What say you?

...btw, while you are at it, drupal coding standards dictate that module/theme names should not be capitalized (only the 1st letter of the first word may be capital). So, it should be 'Views datasource' instead of 'Views Datasource'. I'd file a separate issue for that, but it seems to me you can take care of it by simply editing a few lines in your .info files (perhaps the README.txt too).

PS: Do remember the project's name in d.o too.

ping this - might be good to get a co-maintainer, people shouldn't have to work all alone to keep these modules up todate, up to d7 etc.

+ 1 for seeking co-maintainers. Jeff has done great work in #981810: views_datasource module Drupal 7 port btw.

There's no point in keeping this one open. Bálint (Pasqualle) was added as a new maintainer (at least for the d7 branch).
