I'd like to get some feedback. Allow me to throw some statements out there and tell me if they are accurate:
1) CCK and Views modules conversion to Drupal 6 is far behind.
I've installed CCK on the D6 RC, found a bug which Yves fixed and it appears to be working fine.
Agreed. I'm running it on a site. Works fine for me so far. I'm sure there are bugs, but it's not unusable.
I am not up to date on views, but I think progress is being made.
AFAIK this is also correct that progress is being made.
2) Many people will not even think about moving to Drupal 6 until these modules are upgraded to work with Drupal 6. 3) Therefore, Drupal 6 adoption rate will be slow.
If 3 is true, a worrisome development, I make the following arguments (again, tell me if it's wrong):
Considering that 1) is at least partially false, I think I don't need to continue. :)
I debated about replying earlier and saying the opposite: pooling resources (and possibly creating bounties) will likely help speed things up. I think providing testing, UI advice (views is at this stage now), and code (both) is more valuable than money in this case. There have been please for help - interested people should visit the issue queues of the respective projects to see where they can help. If people would rather throw money at the problem than resources, I guess someone should follow up who is interested and long on time and short on money to help fulfill that need ;) Regards, Greg -- Greg Knaddison Denver, CO | http://knaddison.com World Spanish Tour | http://wanderlusting.org/user/greg
