Can we join forces?

Description

I currently maintain the Vote Up/Down package which in functionality is quite similar to what Plus1 does. In fact, it does a lot more than that. I've been noticing this module does not have a D5 compatible release and that it needs some more love as well. In my opinion, we can do a better job if we combine the 2 projects.
I'd be happy to give Chill35 co-maintainership of Vote Up/Down. Since Vote Up/Down is a large module, the more the working hands, better Drupal experience we can give to our users. We can work out a merger of the features (since the plus1 type widget in Vote Up/Down needs a *lot* of love). Please let me know your thoughts on this. Also, I am in talk with the UpDown module as well (http://drupal.org/node/298430).

Thanks.

i spent some time trying to evaluate both modules and it would be great to see a unification of the two.

I agree!

That is the philosophy of Drupal, after all:

This is not really clear, what module should I use? Does plus1, vote up/down and updown are going to merge into one module, then what modules are going to disappear?

Thanks

@lelizondob: If they merge there will probably be an upgrade path from all plugins so until they have merged you can go ahead and use whichever you want to
