Hey Scott! That rules.
Here's the deal with PHPix2: I started the project becuase the PHPix guy
wasn't answering my email. Then he started answering them, and he was
mighty miffed that I'd forked the code. Now he's disappeared again. In
the meantime I have written *three* new photo albums, all called
photobob, each one a little less user-friendly than the one before it.
While I was working on photobob v1, SourceForge saw fit to delete my
account. I can't seem to rouse the other guy who's active on PHPix2, so
both projects are effectively dead.
What I would suggest doing is: Try to get the PHPix guy to merge in
your changes. Give him a month to get back to you. If he doesn't get
back to you by then, fork the code a second time. Call it something
else, though; something not based on the name "PHPix", even though it's
a cool name. I am giving you explicit permission to take over PHPix2.
If that's too much work for you, just submit your changes as a patch and
hope that people pick them up. I think PHPix and PHPix2 are fading into
irrelevance, unless someone can update one of them and repackage that
update.
That someone could be you, Scott! Just think of the newfound fame! And
beautiful photo albums! And the ladies, Scott, the ladies!
