I'll have to be honest and say I'm rather displeased. Even though I have not heard back yet from Evercraft, Farcaster feels he should still retain control over the Integration of the two mods. While I have no problems with collaboration this would either:
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.
