Hi,
Will there also come a D6 version of this great module please?
Thanks a lot in advance for considering this!
Greetings,

I needed Xtracker working on D6, so I attempted to update it. I am not a module developer, but I know a little PHP. I followed the advice in http://drupal.org/node/114774. I read the tutorial, "Updating Drupal modules to D6 in three easy steps." Since the module does not maintain any database tables, I bypassed using Schema, but I did use Deadwood and Coder to update the module. They got me most of the way there. I needed to read about D6 menu system in http://drupal.org/node/102338 and http://drupal.org/node/103114, much of which Deadwood and Coder did already.
The biggest challenge was getting all of the items to appear in the menu as tabs, and remembering to flush the menu cache whenever I made any changes.
I modeled much after the optional core module Tracker. I am not sure about the security of the updated xtracker module. I could not get it to allow me to view My Posts via xtracker/uid/n, which worked in D5. Maybe someone else can figure out what is needed to make that work.
There is one thing that does not work properly in either D5 or D6: When I go to site/xtracker, there is a tab for the taxonomy term that I configured for xtracker, whether or not I configured nodevote to show vote results only if user has voted on the node. This seems to be incorrect to me, as it is a way around seeing the vote results if I have not yet voted.

Sorry, I didn't mean to change the issue title.
#3
if this is tested by others, I can create a D6 version for it.

Here is a new version. I included the patch in http://drupal.org/node/48950#comment-377475 and a new permission: 'view nodevote totals.' This permission controls whether a user can see the vote totals, and is my response to my issue http://drupal.org/node/536872

Committed
A tar ball should be available shortly.
