First bit of OGA2 code released as Free Software

Hey folks!

Just wanted to let everyone know that I've released some code for OGA 2.0 out into the wild -- specifically, my custom implementation of our site medals.  The current OGA uses a module called User Badges, which hasn't been updated yet for Drupal 7, and is cumbersome in some ways (like how it doesn't include a way for medals to supersede other medals).

I've uploaded the code for OGA2's Medals module to Drupal Contrib, where as of this post it is considered a "sandbox" project, and must be downloaded using Git.  I've put in an application to have it upgraded to a full fledged contrib module project, so if all goes well, that should (hopefully) happen in a few days.

I am looking for people to test and contribute, so if you're up for it, please download the module and set it up on a test instance of Drupal 7, and play around with it.  I'm actively seeking patches and co-maintainers.

At any rate, as more bits and pieces of the OGA 2.0 code reach a usable state, I'll be uploading those to contrib as well.  If you've been interested in helping us get OGA2 out the door quicker, this is your chance! :)

Bart

P. S. For the record, the only reason I haven't open sources OGA1's code is that there isn't a whole lot to open source.  Mostly it's just messy spaghetti and glue, which is part of the reason I'm rewriting it from the ground up. :)

I always thought that medal's not being superceded was just a quirk of OGA, but if they do supercedes in OGA2, then I will be very happy :)

Also, fingers crossed for a quick acceptance!

Looks like I picked the wrong week to go love with this.  DrupalCon Chicago is on right now. :)
