Hey, would like to continue development of this for D7 and get an official package up, doesn't seem to be maintained anymore, mind making me a co-maintainer?

I would like to become a passive maintainer for the D6 version (in other words, integrate and commit necessary fixes of others to get it working).

energee: Have you contacted the maintainer via contact form yet? If you haven't gotten a response, we can move this to the Webmasters queue soon.

Hi,

Please provide patches for the issues in the issue queue. I will give you access to Git to commit patches and thus maintain the module and the issue queue.

Excuse me as I have a tight time schedule, but I really cannot update this module in the meantime. I will more than happy to grant you access to commit and have a D7 branch. But please provide patches for the that and I will add you as a maintainer to commit your patches.

As I currently seen no patch submitted to the issue queue by you.

Thank you

Not sure to whom you were replying, but as mentioned, I'd like to become a passive maintainer. That means I would commit other people's patches and by definition don't have any of my own.

energee made the original request, so you could respond to either of us. Main thing is that somebody can work on the module I think.

energee and wizonesolutions: since you have tried to contact the current module maintainer to no avail, you should take a look at the following page in order to become the maintainers (please!):

@MD3 I contacted energee and wizonesolutions and neither provided patches to be able to take maintainership of this module.

In all cases a D7 branch has been created by other user's patches.

Thanks

Thanks for the D7 dev version! I think the whole community appreciates it :-).

As they clearly stated, they were just looking to push community patches that had been tested. Sometimes this is just as important, when the original developer, such as your self, is no longer able to respond or has time to help the community keep your module up to date. This leads to duplicate modules that confuse both the community and people looking to get involved/use Drupal. Or, it leads to the D7 module being in a long forum where no one can keep track of the issues. Either way, it makes using this module really hard on the community :-(.

Thanks again for pushing out the D7 dev!
