Drupal 6 has hit code freeze, so module maintainers should be able to start updating their modules, and I'd really like to see this one available for D6. :)

I am working on rewriting this module for D6 (I've tried using a "minimal-changes" approach starting from the existing module several times, for D5 too, but in the end it seemed that starting with a blank slate was easiest). See a related forum topic. I was going to submit an issue here, but as it already exists, status updates will be posted here.

I'm keeping my work publically accessible at my own SVN repository, and will submit it here when it is in a usable state: http://svn.ermarian.net/drupal/modules/creativecommons/trunk

(Note that since this really is a rewrite, no attempt has been made yet to reconcile it with the existing database schema. It may be that this module will end up as a separate contrib, such as creativecommons2, but whether or not this happens, I will work to include an update path for sites using the 4.7 version.)

You might want to have a look at the following ticket as well: http://drupal.org/node/214886
This way we can exchange ideas and it might prevent duplicate work.

Hohum. I know you've mentioned it to me via Jabber or IRC, but where was it you (Arancaytar) was halted with regards to this? There haven't been updates to the SVN for a while, and this is one of the things I'd like to have working before launching my site, so if you could be more detailed about what you've done, where you've got problems/is stuck, what is still needed to be done in the future, etc. I (and other people) would probably be better able to help out. :)

(Perhaps you could poke me on Jabber some time and we could work on this together somehow?)

Freso: The AHAH Form API stumped me. It did not pass on the dynamic elements' input data. Fortunately, Nick Lewis put together a fix that will probably solve my problem once I can implement it.

For anyone waiting for the updated module:

You can try out Creative Commons and Copyrights computed field and node type which I just posted for adding your own licences. Then apply one of the many node access modules to secure the granunalrity of each license you create.

The project page says, "This module is currently being updated for Drupal 6 as part of the Google Summer of Code 2009."

Who is the GSoC developer?

Hi, that would be me. Just getting grounded on Drupal.org still, sorry it's taken me a while to respond.

This module is important to my site. Please let me know of ways I could help.

I could use help testing the alpha release. Should be ready in a day or two. I'll post here again when it is.

@balleyne: I'm looking forward to play with the alpha release. :)

It's taken longer than I'd anticipated, but I've actually put it out as a beta release now (rather than alpha).

Testing would be greatly appreciated.

I've been using this module pretty actively, pushing on it with new code, etc. It's working pretty well and has certainly been updated for D6. Any problems or feature requests can be made into new specific tickets.
