Corrections to README.txt that have been long overlooked.

Module's maintainer is not willing to port this module to D6? That would be so useful, thanks!

I just got CVS access as a maintainer last week and closed some of the long-standing patches. It's not a matter of not being willing, just priorities. This patch won't apply cleanly anymore because I closed a bunch of 5.x bugs on last week. There were a lot of cases where 5.x wasn't working anyway and I'm probably going to get a working 5.x-1.0 release before I branch 6.x.

Till after 5.x-1.0.

OK, thank you for the update on the situation, as you can guess I absolutely need this ability to lock a profile field in a new site and I don't know how to do it in D6 without this module. Do you know of another way to lock a profile field?

Maybe by using one field accessible only to modules and themes, I would have to fill this field myself as an administrator when a new user sign up? I don't need to list this field, by I need to use it in my theme.

I have only just found out about this module and had already written my own version in D6. You can get the code at http://drupalbin.com/2444 have a look, see what you think and we can look at merging it with this.

I branched DRUPAL-6--1, but I don't think it works. It's at least at a point where it doesn't spew errors. Please file bugs and patches on it in separate issues.
