when including the timeline libs locally the module requires write permissions of the simile timeline library folders. or if drupal can, it would try to change permissions automatically. file_check_directory() is falsely used to check if libs are located correctly.

The write permission is not necessary and should be removed.

Given the fact that the only check file_check_directory does that really matters here is the is_dir call, what about the following simple patch ?

Thanks for the path. Committed to the DRUPAL-6--2 branch (dev snapshot).

For the the next stable version of this module there'll be an update script that takes write permissions from this folder automatically (as they have been set by this issue).
