Hi,

Any plans to update your stock modules (api, etc) to 5.0 soon? Have you ever come across any prediction market (create your own markets like on hollywood stock exchange) open source software? Also, I read on drupal groups where someone was saying that additional financial data services (in addition to yahoo) would be supported.

Thanks,

Jim

I am currently working on the upgrade to 5.0 for the Stock, stockapi and Stock chart modules. I hope to have them completed by the end of the week.

After I complete the upgrade, I will start working on the features I have discussed adding. As I am currently doing this on a very part-time basis, it may be a while before the features see the light of day, but I will try to submit things as they start working, rather than waiting for completion, so that people may start using them sooner.

Also, do you have a link on that software you were referring to, so that I may see what you are talking about?

Hi,

Thanks for your interests. Here is a link to prediction markets on yahoo. http://buzz.research.yahoo.com/bk/index.html

Here's the link to the REST api's, http://buzz.research.yahoo.com/dm/info/api.html.

The game on yahoo is about prediction markets, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prediction_markets Yahoo Buzz game uses prediction markets (i think yahoo is using inklingmarkets.com for the markets) and the REST API.

Kind regards,

Jim

I just committed changes to update the 5.x branch to be compatible with Drupal 5. There's still an update that needs to be made from using $_POST to using $form_values, but I couldn't get that to work correctly. I'm leaving the tag as 5.x-1.x-dev for a couple of weeks until I convert the $_POST variables and for any potentially obviously wrong problems to be fixed. If there are any problems with the newly released code, please open new issues for them. Thanks.
