Last time I did this, I successfully got rid of some modules.

Here are modules that I would like to dump completely and never have to think of again:

DHTML Menu
Ok, I use this one so I would like input into ensuring it doesn't turn into something I hate (which many of the feature requests against it do =).
LiveJournal CrossPoster
It doesn't need much. Maybe smarter logic in figuring out cut tags if you've got a post that is more than just a simple text/body blog post.
Views Bookmarks
We tried this once before but I had to take it back. It's important that this module is actually maintained. Many people do use it. Unfortunately the people who use it don't have the time to maintain it. Go figure.
Taxonomy Lineage
This doesn't need much at all. THe occasional upgrade from Drupal versions, mostly. It's very small.
Taxonomy Redirect
This doesn't need much at all. THe occasional upgrade from Drupal versions, mostly. It's very small.
Co-maintainers wanted: Panels 1
I had a few bites last time but none of them actually managed to get their hooks in. Panels 1 still needs maintenance. I don't have time, energy or interest in maintaining it, and it'll likely continue to be in use for quite some time, even though Panels 2 is on the way, it's still got quite awhile before I release Panels 2.0 and even then the adoptions might take some time. Whereas simple bug fixes to Panels 1 probably don't need to wait, but I have no interest in doing them.

Let me know. For some of these, I require active Drupal contributors. I'm not dumping these modules off as much because I don't care about them, but because I do care about them and I don't have the time for them. If they go to someone else who also doesn't have the time for them, then it's a lose-lose situation for everyone.

Hello

I am working on reBlog module. This module will enable users to post to external blogs that run on workpress, MT, blogger and Drupal of course. I will take a look at your module and try to integrate LJ support as well.

Thanks

There is a generic one that works for several...blogclient maybe? But it's much harder to use than ljxp, which is why ljxp exists.
