Orphaned Plugins, Revisited

Although they announced their intentions back in July, the team of coders at MaxBlogPress are embarking on an intriguing journey: to update orphaned and abandoned WordPress plugins deemed worthy of continued survival by the website owners and designers whose sites rely on outdated versions of those plugins.

These are the folks behind the WordPress plugin Max Banner Ads and about 10 others, so if anyone is up to the task, in my opinion, this is the group to get the job done.

So far, they’ve taken on 4 plugins: Flash Fader, Easy Custom Fields, Post Format Control, and Access by Category.
