Description
I've working on Salesforce FeedAPI integration going which allows me to create a "Feed" which is really a SOQL query that runs against salesforce. I'm using it to pull subsets of salesforce data into Drupal, to combine with data aggregated from other sources to build complex displays that aren't (easily) possible in salesforce.
This mini-module is remarkably small and useful. I'm wondering it you'd consider it for inclusion in the salesforce module?
#1
IMO, code that integrates with other contrib-modules (such as feedapi and webform), is better off in it's own package. It will be easier to maintain that way. Code that integrates with Drupal core should definitely be maintained here.
Modules that integrate salesforce to webform and feedapi etc, should definately be linked to from salesforce project homepage! Please create an issue in the queue, or reopen this once there is somewhere to link to. E.g. #457908: Link to sf_webform
Drush is the exception here, since it is just one file and drush is kind of special, in that's it's not a module.

Sounds good. I'll let you know where the code ends up.

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.

Jeff, Where did this get to? Any news?

I've attached the code below.
Regard making a project of this - as salesforce work isn't anything I'm any sort of export on, nor that my company uses much, I don't think I'm going to be particularly well suited to maintaining this as a project on D.O
Bevan, if you or any of the other salesforce module maintainers would like to make a project for this I'd be quite happy. At 125 lines, it's quite a simple module :)

Thanks for the update. I'll leave this open till someone gets around to taking on creating a d.o project and/or maintainership.

Hi, the link for "parser_salesforce.tgz" leads to "http://drupal.org/files/issues"
Could you please upload again?
Thanks!

Strange that it vanished. Here it is again.

Great, thank you.

This module is something we will be using a fair bit in our work. We are a shop that has significant Salesforce talent, and are doing increasing amounts of projects integrating Drupal and Salesforce. I'm willing to take maintainership, and start a D.O project (I am about to apply for a CVS account.)

Please contact Josh Koenig and/or myself if you want to become a maintainer of this module. Pearlbear, to where can I refer the Salesforce-Drupal development work requests I get?
