Hi

I been looking at project pier and would like to get involve but the Source forge svn seems to be dead and the mailing list archive shows no activity.

the drupal site will not let me past the catch claiming you need to enable cookies, which they are on firefox (mac/ubuntu), safari and chrome... could some one register me? i have drupal experience happy to help out a bit there but more interested in the code base.

Thanks
Alastair

Never see that happen before, but I haven't visited the site for some time
now. Don't know if you'll have any luck has this list is also dead.

The ProjectPier.org website works just fine, problem must be on your end.

There are some new initiatives under way to try to revive the dead
project, don't judge by Sourceforge, we've abandoned it, read here:

Hi,

That are great news, I always wanted to see the project grow, alas I lost a interest, no I believe I lost momentum after my last attempt at developing it. Still I'll look at the new tools, github is not my thing but I'll see where I can offer my help.

I've translated PP to Portuguese, pt_PT, I think I can at least maintain the new project translated. Aside from github is there anything else you use to communicate?

hi
i have looked at github, and thought it was a completely separate fork.

I definatly can't register as mentioned tried on three browser and two os's just get told to activate cookies which are active.

Was thinking of starting by looking at bugs. is there a plan on how to approach them or to report them?

the experimental build fails to complete a fresh install at the moment so busy looking in to that. seams to point to the wrong location but not quit up to date with the code to patch it.

thanks sergio
