He informed me that Pligg was still under active development - that AshDigg has embarked on an intensive 2.0 complete rewrite, and that they had decided not to include this new rewrite in the SVN. It frustrates me that it's not in the SVN, as I do like following the development progress, but things are still happening...and I'm hoping to jump on and perform some development myself shortly.

I think that the core developers became greedy! Most OSS developers do what they do because they love programming. Take WordPress for an example: everyone who uses it, knows (and its very clear) that the developers really love the project and get much effort in to it. Pligg... well it's on beta since probably the beginning! not only that, but every new version, sometimes comes with a lot more bugs than the previous one. I think that the core developers are a bunch of kids that think of Pligg as a programming playground. Just look at the code! All messy... I use it, but probably will not update my install for the next years... probably I will continue developing on my own, going a different path. By the way: Geoserv, you could get some more guys and "rip" Pligg, starting a new project! Really! Unfortunately I don't know programming. Just an idea, thought.

We are closing all of the outstanding issues (mainly important feature requests). Then, we need to separate drigg.module into separate modules (it's too big right now), and update it to Drupal 6. One more developer has joined me (a godsend), and two more have shown active interest. With 4 part-time programmers, Drigg would really start flying. But, I must say, developing something like this is _hard_ work. And the only reward is the knowledge that I am doing something quite amazing (DEFINITELY not on my own!). Right now, if I hadn't found the help of more people and didn't have Drupal's infrastructure behind me (for bug reports, issues, existing codebase, etc.) I would have given up. Ash did a remarkable job, and developed Pligg for a very long time. Kudos to him. I think the right attitude really here is "How do we help Pligg and its main developer?". If I were Ash, I would like people to be asking that question... Bye, Merc. Drigg Developer Hi,

Though, the Pligg has always been driven, coded and enhanced by the member base and NOT the developers. Pligg has really gone down hill the last few months.
