Incorporate functionality from Flood Unblock

+1, it's really confusing right now to figure out which module to use when. Even more confusingly, @fabianderijk seems to maintain both! :D

So … @fabianderijk, could you update both project pages to describe when to use which module, or ideally, merge the two modules?

@Wim,

I do maintain both, but only since a short while including flood_control. We (@batigolix and me) ar maintainers of the flood_unblock module. We came across the flood_control module a while ago. I even already asked to co-maintain or incorporate the two modules a few years ago without any response.

A few weeks / months ago we revitalised the flood_unblock module and started the progress to actually become co-maintainer for the flood_control module with the idea to eventually integrate the flood_unblock module into it. Functionality of both modules are not the same, but extending each other and should be placed in one module. And because we think Flood Control is a better name for the functionality, we are moving everything to this module and are deprecating the flood_unblock module.

FYI, @batigolix and I have discussed a exiting strategy for flood_unblock where we will warn existing users to start using the flood_control module when the functionality has been moved.
