CVS edit link for checkfront

Hello, we have a Drupal module that we'd like to see maintained at Drupal.

The module is connects Drupal to our online booking system, allowing businesses to take bookings online, process payments, and manage their inventory via our backend management console.

Our module is a very simple implementation that calls an ajax library to build the booking window.

The module can be seen and downloaded here: http://www.checkfront.com/new-drupal-module

We have a free non-trial account for our service. The module itself is released under GPL 2.

As for myself, I've been a dedicated PHP developer since the days of php 3. Here is my bio (taken from my website):

"With over a decade of professional IT experience behind him, Jason has been immersed in e-commerce since its conception. He is a self described Technical Architect and Linux evangelist. Prior to founding Checkfront, he played a key role in building several successful e-commerce companies, including Netconcepts, Vendorama, and Revenuewire. He has lived and worked in Toronto Canada, Auckland New Zealand, and now calls Victoria, BC home."

Thanks. Let me know if you need more information. Also see:

Hello, and thanks for applying for a CVS account. I am adding the review tags, and some volunteers will review your code, pointing out what needs to be changed.

As per http://drupal.org/cvs-application/requirements, the motivation message should be expanded to contain more details about the features of the proposed module, and it should include also a comparison with the existing solutions.

See http://drupal.org/coding-standards to understand how a module should be written. In particular, see how the code should be formatted.
Strings used in the user interface should be in sentence case.

The license file should be removed as it can be committed in Drupal.org repository.

The license file has been removed. Attached is a new version.

As for the motivation message...

Checkfront is a new approach to managing bookings, and reservations online. I believe we would fall under the booking system group at Drupal http://groups.drupal.org/taxonomy/term/5859. There appear to be a couple of similar modules in there. Our module is unique in that at although the backend system lives outside of Drupal, the entire customer experienced is held within Drupal, without framing in content, or bouncing the user off the site.

We also have a commitment to a free and open plan that doesn't expire, and isn't crippled (see: http://www.checkfront.com/docs/soho).

We have had great response on our Joomla and Wordpress plugins. Really looking forward to servicing the Drupal community.

Please let me know what other details I can provide.

Best

-Jason

I don't want to come off as impatient - just wondering if there is something else that you need from us, or we are just in a queue?

Just a little note: the license file must be removed as it cannot be committed, and the implementation of hook_update_N() should be removed as the project is not present Drupal.org repository.
