Description
The maintainer of Drigg has abandoned drupal because of various community problems he encountered. The Drigg project is currently open for a new maintainer. Perhaps now is a good time to merge these two projects, since they are similar.
#1
There is no reason to have three modules with the same functionality. Drigg is likely going to be depreciated to Vote Up/Down (#438510). DrupalIt should follow suit.
I say this because Vote Up/Down has a larger user base and is better integrated with other Drupal modules.
It is for this reason I suggest creating a migrate path from DrupalIt to Vote Up/Down and depreciating Drupalit.

I have been trying to figure out vote up down for a week now.
Storylink is not available in D6 and the Drupalit icon for voting is so much nicer than the ones provided with vote up down.
I am also a fan of having pre-configured views/blocks readily available.
One thing that I would like to see from DrupalIT is the theme flexibility of Vote Up Down

activelyOUT - Thank you for your time investment into using Vote Up/Down and giving your feedback.
Keep in mind, this module was accepted for Google Summer of Code. The maintainer has created a roadmap which is detailed in the following location:

One of the main focus is on the development Widget API and the author would like to have Views API Integration.
