Textile: Port to Drupal 6?

Are their any plans/work-in-progress to convert this module to Drupal 6?

What can I do to help?

Thanks,
Paul Campbell

A version for Drupal 6 would be really helpful. Thanks.

There is already a port available, but it's in the form of a patch. I'm just getting involved as a co-maintainer, so still figuring out how to release. Read the docs, just getting into *doing* it.

See http://drupal.org/node/227087 for the patch

The patches listed in the referenced thread appear to work fine for me. I also notice that Textile shows up as a module type of "other". The following patch will move it to "Input formats":

I'd love a release for Drupal 6.

Great work. Thanks.
