<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I’m looking for a new maintainer for the importexportapi
module.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'> </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The importexportapi module needs some love and time that I
don’t have right now. This was a summer of code project (developed
by jaza) that allows data to be exported and imported between Drupal installs
– this is great functionality to have, especially when moving between a
dev/qa/live configuration or when upgrading sites from one version to
another. When jaza left for a year long trip, I volunteered. But
being a responsible module maintainer also means recognizing that I don’t
have the time to give it. </span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Anyone interested should send me email. The original
author was careful to pick someone with some experience, so I feel obligated to
do the same. This module needs someone with both Drupal and programming
experience, as it has almost 5000 lines of code and as it interfaces with many
areas of Drupal. </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>While not looking for a bounty, if anyone wants to pay for
the development, I’d be happy to do the work myself. There are
about 40 issues in the issue queue that my WAG is about a weeks worth of
work. I’m not averse to contrib work as I have 8 or so other
contrib modules of my own, but my wife is happier when I get paid for
work. And a week is just a little more than I can contribute right now.</span></font></p>
