Hello long-suffering Views Datasource users, it's your module maintainer here. Yes I've been absent for a long time but I'm back and I'm going to clear the issue and make a BETA3 release with requested features like individual configuration for each field, and bugfixes by Monday. Thanks hugely to Joshua Jabbour and others for helping out in the issue queue while I was gone. I'm really sorry for the delay in releasing the new version and I'm going to get things back on track ASAP.

Glad to hear you're back! In your absence, I created a fork for my own use at http://github.com/joshuajabbour/views_datasource/commits/master. It mostly adds coding standards fixes, but also rolls in a handful of patches from the queue. I'd be happy to help merge it in if you like...

Also, I'll happily help out if you need a co-maintainer...

So no chance on becoming co-maintainer? I'd love to fix a bunch of bugs and get a new, stable release out, but can't do it via patches alone.

Sorry again for the delay, I haven't been active on this module for a while. I'm trying to get a new release out with all the bugfixes by the end of this week.

Actually I wouldn't mind a co-maintainer for certain things but right now I'm still trying to finalize how certain things work inside the module and how it interacts with Views, and the code is in a mess formatting and structure wise. Once I hit the 1.0 release I'll have it cleaned up so somebody else can work on it. But thanks hugely for the work and support you've done already, I really appreciate it.

ok, yeah I figured I could do the cleanup since you're right, it's kind of a mess and that's a lot of what I've already done :) but my fork works for me...

Hi Alister, your work is much appreciated... but if you are strapped for time/energy perhaps taking up Joshua's offer might be worthwhile?

Please consider a co-maintainer. I'm needlessly running forked code as well.

One option is to just open up a new branch and limit your co-maintainer to that branch so it doesn't interfere with your refactoring.
