1. Require me to coach Farcaster on every single change I've made to BOTH plugins (This mod will never be able to work with the changes I've made to Event Forums, as is).

or 2. Send him the integration plugin in its entirety so he can release it as his own.

So, I'm afraid to say if I even do hear back from Evercraft, I may have to incorporate my own RSVP plugins directly into the Event Forums product. And what's worse is since I've already shared with him most of my original ideas for this mod, I would be accused of copying if both products were to have the same additions. So I would be discouraged from even bothering to release anything at all, and then we're back to where we started.

(Which was me simply redoing both mods in a personal capacity, since they both cause so many problems when working in tandem.)

And on that note I would highly suggest not considering offering integration anymore with the old Event Forums, Farcaster. The mod actually goes back further than Evercraft's involvement, back to 3.5 and maybe even older, and therefore is coded accordingly. I've changed so much at this point, that I don't even remember if everything is sanitized in the correct fashion. Not to mention the 60 extra queries on FORUMDISPLAY, and dozen on SHOWTHREAD.

Sorry to disappoint, guys. At least I tried.

My opinion is that at this point in time this mod is considered abandoned...Why not scrap the rest of what you borrowed from the other mods, rewrite it in full, add a few new features and release it as your own mod? No hard feelings to anyone but there is a need for this mod and you were passionate enough to try and help. My vote would be for you to finish it up and release it as your own MOD.

Dear Farcaster,

Do you have the time and desire to create event forums functions for this hack?
This is what many members are waiting for.

IMHO event attendance functions and forum <-> calendar integration supplement each other so much, that many admins will not use one without the other.

There is a difference between taking over someone else's modification and expanding your own. I am hoping that farcaster does have the desire for that and thus wants to make time for it.
