So, I contacted Matt and he has agreed to release his code under the GPL as long as he gets credited for parts of the original code in the source header, which AFAIK is perfectly acceptable and compatible with the GPL.
Excellent!
I still would like to explore the possibility of merging this code into Node Moderation as an optional running mode, since I like the star based ratings ui for some of my websites. Also, I remember having issues with the module when trying to display multiple node types on the front page.
I've been chatting about it with #drupal. There are two notes: * JonBob thinks it'll be easy as pie to hook the following UI: http://factorycity.net/demos/drupal/rating/ up to remote calls in javascript (such that the user can vote, but without requiring a page reload or an IFRAME). * actions.module, which I've not looked at but sounds interesting, has been proposed to implement your Node Moderation. With it, you'd be able to define two (new) actions to happen when a node reaches X amount of (average) stars. -- Morbus Iff ( you are nothing without your robot car, NOTHING! ) Culture: http://www.disobey.com/ and http://www.gamegrene.com/ Spidering Hacks: http://amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0596005776/disobeycom icq: 2927491 / aim: akaMorbus / yahoo: morbus_iff / jabber.org: morbus
