I was surprised to be emailed by a couple of people asking if I was going to continue with my LM_PayPal module now an "official" PayPal module (Simple PayPal Framework http://drupal.org/project/simple_paypal ) had been written. I created my module last year because the existing PayPal Framework was no longer supported and the author could no longer be reached. I really needed PayPal based subscriptions and nothing available at the time that supported them. Knowing that "competing" modules are generally frowned upon I did my best to ensure it wasn't duplicating any work and I couldn't find any other PayPal modules (with the exception of the eCommerce suite). When I asked for permission to submit it to CVS I was asked if I had tried to contact the PayPal Framework author. This was checked before I was given permission. (There was by this time someone working on the Framework but he was happy to defer to my work and in fact the module entry now points people to LM_PayPal.) I thought this was the route all replacement modules would take. I was never contacted about this new module. My first knowledge was when my users emailed me. I contacted one of the authors of the Simple PayPal Framework, Khalid Baheyeldin, and he confirmed it is taking over. Today I find that my module has been removed from the contributed modules list (http://drupal.org/project/Modules/name). I'm a pretty surprised by all this. No-one had the courtesy to contact me to let me know my module was being dropped. I was given no warning of any kind. If someone could let me know how much longer LM_PayPal will appear as a project and under CVS I'd appreciate it. Lee
