Description
Hi there,
Because of some great modules you made like 'Click thru tracking' and the 'User Points Contributed' package I was wondering if there has been any port to D6 in progress? Looked at the site of 2bits but didn't find any updates. I don't know if this the right place to post my question.
#1
The userpoints contrib set of modules are created by many people and not just one person or company.
I am unaware of one site that uses them all at the same time.
So, it will happen when people using it submit working patches for the modules that they use, or when some company wants to fund the effort of porting modules to 6.x for using them on a site.
So, everyone, please post working and tested patches below of the modules you port and I will commit them.
#2
If there are other people that are updating these, I would really like to see that happen and would volunteer to help out, I'm capable in PHP but not sure what would be needed for these ports... if anyone can tell me how to help with this project, I will be happy to :)

In general, any module to be ported from 5.x to 6.x may need some or all of the points here http://drupal.org/node/114774
Depending on the specific module, some theme functions may be needed as per here http://drupal.org/node/132442
Start with the latest code in the DRUPAL-5--3 tag, and as you convert modules, test them thoroughly, create patches, and post them as issues. See http://drupal.org/patch for details on how to create proper patches.

You refer to the "User Points Contributed" module ... I'm not sure which module you're thinking of but just in case it's the User Points Top Contributors module, it's been ported to 6.x and can be downloaded here: http://drupal.org/project/userpoints_top_contributors
HTH,
Kevin
