Hi, I'm willing to take over the BOOKPOST project maintainership. I need it for a project and have been working on some code.
See comment

For the picks of some preliminary work done for Drupal 7 version with improvements already.

Would like to make book post more generic with an additional "google" book post option as well to add flexibility.

Hi derrellulm,

I'm glad to hear you'd like to contribute to the Bookpost module. As is obvious, I've not had the time I'd want to keep the module running. Would you be willing to give me an idea of where you'd like to take the module and possibly even send some code or patches that I can look at?

Thanks for your interest.

Whoops! I missed your prompt reply this morning because my Drupal email was grouped in one daily send!

Yes, I sent you a code snippet. There is still some cleanup, but could have a working DEV version up pretty quickly. This is a Drupal 7 only version.

So much is changed, it is probably best to make a new version entry and start fresh from there. Since there will be some changes needed as always when it is posted, if I am a co-maintainer, I can get them up pretty quick.

The JSON decode method I used is pretty different as well as most of the code for the filter hooks so there may not be too much left of the original, and did this mainly to expand the features, i.e. the bib-fields can be chosen. Even so, it is backwards compatible for users with the old version running 6 once they move to Drupal 7.

I put some preview pics on this post also.

I started a new module at:

http://drupal.org/project/1372154/git-instructions

This one works with Google Book data instead of Open Library data.

Works similar using the {{ search string }} filter.
