First of all, let me just say that this module is a LIFE SAVER! Thanks a lot for it guys! I hope that I will be able to contribute some code in the future.

3 small suggestions for the module's description (I hope you agree they they may help some users):

a) In the description of the module usage write something like this:

After installing you can find the option to enable read-only mode for your site under "Site Configuration" - "Site Maintenance" (path: admin/settings/site-maintenance)

It is a bit more descriptive.

b) You can also mention somewhere that the message the user sets up, will be printed with the $messages variable which is used in most themes (someone that has done extensive theming and forgot to add this variable will not see the message).

c) Finally, a mention like the following:

The module will replace the forms for posting with the message: "Site is in read only mode, so no content can be posted."

This way the user will know what to expect after he/she has enabled the module.

(and a small request: can this message be changed? :P )

Once again xilia euxaristw (=thanks a million) for this cute cute cute module :)))))

Thanks for your additions!

a: Added to 6.x-1.x-dev
b: In the newest version, I don't use the $message anymore - it now displays the text instead of the form.
c: Added to 6.x-1.x-dev
