[drupal-devel] Modules up for adoption
Greetings drupal-devel, Sometime in the next month or 2, I'm going to be pulled into a non-Drupal project for a few months. As I won't have much time to spend on the modules that I've created thus far, I'm placing them up for adoption. Anyone interested in taking over the maintenance of any of these please let me know. I don't want to see them rot on the vine and would rather somebody potentially take them in a different direction then have them sit unused and neglected. attached_node <http://drupal.org/node/11988> Status: Working Needs: Future maintenance and occasional bug fixes (currently a few to look at) editasnew <http://drupal.org/node/16806> Status: Working Needs: Future maintenance and occasional bug fixes relativity <http://drupal.org/node/17004> Status: Functional but not quite 100%. Will be soon, though. Needs: TLC, proper documentation/help, rethink the UI a bit (simplify it) moblog <http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/sandbox/javanaut/moblog/> Status: Functional but not very robust. Relies on mime_registry. Neglected for quite a while now. Needs: Current and future maintenance. Needs to be made stable enough to be part of a public project. This is not a simple project, so buyer beware. mime_registry <http://cvs.drupal.org/viewcvs/drupal/contributions/sandbox/javanaut/mime_registry/> Status: Functional based on other drupal 4.5.1 modules (image,filestore2,etc). Neglected for quite a while now. Needs: An advocate to promote this to other module developers (so it's hooks are supported). Currently, there are dependencies on specific versions of other contrib modules. Also not a simple project. I'll still be around for another month or two, so anyone taking over a module won't be standing out in the cold wondering why the hell I wrote something the way I did (though I might not always have an answer :P ). This is from a forum post on drupal.org: http://drupal.org/node/17482 Thanks, Mark
Hi mark, I appricate your efforts a lot. And i would really like it if you are able and willing to leverage this adoption to a higer level: refer to the discussion on this ML about bundles and module development. Bèr Op vrijdag 18 februari 2005 16:06, schreef Mark:

Thanks, Mark Regards, Bèr -- [ Bèr Kessels | Drupal services www.webschuur.com ]
I was interested in the moblog module but after investigating things I found that the functions are country specific. Sweden/scandanavia systems are so different from others that I would not be able to accomodate non-nordic gsm systems. Even the U.K. is not very close. I would be interested in taking a look at the code though. But I would have to take things in another direction to get more coverage. I propose taking the functionality over to SMS-to-email or SMS-to-forum and use WAP as the common ground. So the use of the mimetype module would be unnecessary. I am still investigating services to see if there is much commonality in the American and Euro implemetations of SMS. I am just posting this to make sure that you don't put it in the grave before I finish my research. Carl McDade Mark wrote:

Though still a "post-by-phone" feature, I think if you were going to use WAP instead of email for the post method, you might want to start from scratch. The moblog module is little more than a mail client and attachment formatter/downloader specific to MIME attachments.
I am still investigating services to see if there is much commonality in the American and Euro implemetations of SMS.
I would be interested to hear about how the various wireless services work in Europe. I can tell you that from my research, most carriers in the US provide some form of email gateway for text/binary messages.
I am just posting this to make sure that you don't put it in the grave before I finish my research. No, if it meets its grave it will happen through neglect as opposed to any direct action on my part. I haven't lost interest, just time. Regards, Mark
