Yogurt new life!

As founder of the yogurt project i never thought one day I would not have time to develop it further. But that day arrived and fortunetaly I had good friends who were free to take and carry it over.
Some weeks ago i received news from edvbox and phppp about a xss vulnerability in the script. Even if that was a simple matter of casting integer variables I really don t have the time to do it now. Edvbox offered himself with the help from some icms members to work on that vulnerability and to carry the project which i have accepted gratefuly.
I received many emails from xoops users asking if the project would continue to be compatible with xoops 2.0 and the next 3.0 version. I answer to them that what i have dealt with edvbox was exactly that, to take the project and make it compatible with icms but to maintain the xoops compatibility as well.
Today after talking to phppp with who I have dealt a long time ago to make yogurt part of the next profile module of xoops 3.0 i have decided to add him too as project manager of yogurt.
Both are good friends of mine and have my full confidence. Yogurt is a free open source module that was created for xoops mainly but that will work soon on impresscms and i hope someday on xoops cube. That s why i have asked phppp to deal with edvbox and not make changes that would make it uncompatible with impresscms.
One day this module wont be compatible with the three branches of the original xoops project but that day don t have to be today.
I hope everyone will understand my positions, and that every help is welcome to make yogurt a better module for its users.

I will ask the othe two project admins not to erase this post and to keep working on the project in a friendly mood.
