Due to a number of changes in the plugin system of vbulletin 5 it will not be possible to port this product without making a lot of substantial changes. It will not be possible to integrate the banners by the means of now, and requires to become stand-alone and maintained externally. I do have the project ladder ready, but it will take a lot of time to get it done and most probably isn't what people really want.
I'm not sure, if an add-on rather than a plugin is more useful. I am also opting to break into the base code, as in the very beginning of vbulletin, in order to show banners cheap, easy and fast as in vbulletin 4. But this is not an option to most of the users, and also not to me, having then to create special installation procedures for every release.
Maybe however vbulletin will decide to add some classic methods to their code, which allow us to do what we want, without reinventing the wheel once again.
