Description
This would be useful to have in Drupal 6.x
What would we need to do in order to port it?

#1
What you need to do, is described here: http://drupal.org/node/114774.
#2
I do intend to upgrade this module to Drupal 6, but when I do it's not going to be clear cut like that. I'd rather essentially implement the other recommendations including the actions integration which is now in the core. I currently don't have enough time to devote to it but it will eventually happen. I use this module at work (which is why I wrote it in the first place) so I still have use for it as well.
I'll do what I can in the near future but I can't promise anything.

Is there any development stream for this module. I would like to help in some way may be even in testing.
I just upgraded into drupal6 using deadwood and coder and it works fine.
Thanks for this wonderful module.
#5
Could you post a patch with the changes you made?
#6
Well I dint even make any changes. I just used deadwood and coder module and just upgraded.
Frankly I am new to drupal and don't know how to write a patch. So I am attaching the .module page
I will try to rewrite in a standard drupal way. But for now here it is.
I am sorry I may have deleted many useful things.
I have many copies of this. I think this is the working one. If not let me know.

Guys,
i asked the former maintainer, dllh, a few weeks ago to have the CVS access of this module, in order to port the module to D6. So i started about 3 days ago ("DRUPAL-6--1" CVS branch) and Im glad to say that im almost done.
I did several optimizations, code cleaning and small new features.
I will release the code in 1-2 days.
regards,
massa

Guys,
im now very happy to say that Node Expire for Drupal 6 is now online!
I tried to create a good update routine for old users, but i STRONGLY suggest to backup your site first, test if all data will be preserved and than, if positive, migrate.
you can download it here or here
regards,
massa
