Any ETA/plans for Drupal 6 version of Asset Module

I would also appreciate any information about asset module and drupal 6, as we're starting a new web site and we won't do that with drupal 5...

Asset 5.x-1 is nearing its first release candidate. Once asset 5.x-1.0 is released, I will start porting it to Drupal 6.

Great stuff, good to hear progress is being made, clearly this could be the best thing for Drupal since CCK and Views (I can see Asset being used in many of my future projects).

sorry, don't want to be pushy here (i know, it very much sounds pushy and probably is ;), but:

When are we going to see Asset for D6?? ... This issue is quite abandoned for a while now...
Drupal 6 is in the mid of its release cycle and many major modules are *at last* running on D6, making it the only reasonable choice for projects that get into development at this moment. If asset module shall be widely used, it is critical that Asset runs on D6 now.

Sooo ... does anyone have a *rough* idea about when a decent running D6 version of Asset module could be available, not for production, just for development? We'll need it primarily for integration into a project currently under development until the end of the year (but integrated into project development in any case *way before* end of the year).
We used Asset on a D5 prototype, and i'd hate to replace it now, cause i think it's great and it's got real potential.

Would be glad to hear something a bit more specific to get a rough idea about Asset-for-D6 timeline....

thanks!!

Damien Cirotteau is currently working on a Drupal 6 port, you can follow the progress on the g.d.o post on The future of the asset module. I agree that if even panels is in it's first alpha, it's time for asset to move on as well. Our priority was to get a stable 1.0 out for Drupal 5 and now that we managed that, we're ready for Drupal 6.

thanks, Wim, that's great news!

Sounds as if Damien is working on a feature-constant Port, which is very fine for me and should make a D6 Asset.module coming reality a lot faster - cool!

(So, I'll continue development without activating asset.module and then integrate it as soon as a test version is getting out, which should work for most D6 projects starting at the moment, since Damien sounds as if he would have early verison of an asset D6 port ready within a few weeks...).

I confirm both statements : this is a constant feature port and it will be release very soon now. You can expect a test version for the next week.
