User Intergration with Mambo

[gurkmannen]

Since it seems nothing has been heard of the mambovb project lately I've released a temporary solution for a Mambo-vB integration. It is a script that can be run as a cron job which merges the users of Mambo and vB. It has been tested with 2.2.x and 2.3.x but will probably not work with vB3.

I have however recently been able to get a current vBulletin license and might be able to update this for vB3 as well. Not sure how much differences there are though.

The script is called vbtomambo and can be downloaded from my site: http://mambo.theyard.org

I've done another forum integration for Mambo as well, and could be able to do a more complete integration, with seamless user integration and the possibility to comment articles directly into vb. But since I don't use vB myself the only reason to do this would be because it would be a good thing for the Mambo community (and vB as well obviously) unless someone could donate some money to get this finished. I have a donation pool up on my site, but except for the donation of a license I haven't received anything yet, and as I have to pay my rent paying work takes precedence.

Even if you don't feel you have anything to donate, I'd like to hear from people who might be interested in an integration. Knowing that people would use it would certainly help to get me going as well.

Kind regards,
Olle Johansson
