Re: [request] mrd_newsletters - postmaster rewrite ( bounty / specs )
Hi Phil, the reason I suggested the above is because unlike other plugins which might eventually become part of the core or the users might eventually manage their sites without them, the postmaster one is an investment for a lot of sites which help in their (or he business they represent) growth. As such, once the plugin goes there will be no alternative. As I mentioned earlier in the forum there is a legal grey area in moving the subscribers to a third party service such as mail-chimp and the like.
Although I really like Jukka’s thoroughness in coding I have also been around for long enough to know that devs change. People move on because that is how life is. For an end user like me though, learning a software is not so much a part of my CV but an investment. I still use the same CAD software I used back in the 80s for example. That is why I feel that postmaster becoming part of a ‘pro’ core might help in securing not only the function but also the future of txp.
Having said that I really trust that the devs are doing an excellent job and I would be very happy if any one of them takes up the challenge.
As such and in view of the current economic crises and the looming austerity measures I pledge $150.

And another feature request.
The ability to send to more than one list without sending multiple emails to subscribers who belong to 2 or more lists.

I’ll put what little extra money my paypal account has in it from time to time. There’s a tenner in it at the moment. A tenner here tenner there is all I can swing.
edited to say… a tenner for every install of it?

Yiannis, who? This thread is gathering funding and ideas for the plugin, which then are collected and used to pay the developer. I’m expressing my interest to develop the plugin if there is upfront funding. After all, you need someone talented to make the plugin.
jesus jukka you have no shame… nice…

At this point I would just be happy with something that integrated mailchimp into the admin panel so my clients wouldn’t have to bounce around to different sites.

Update: Inability to garner enough support to do a thorough rewrite leads me to this renewed and retooled request…
