What happened with the original maintainer of Numbers_Words - Piotr Klaban?

He's MIA unfortunately - the email address on his account and in source code is dead, and the domain for his site / blog / etc is dead too. The only other person (Marcelo) who was listed as a developer didn't respond to emails either. In case he's unable to continue his maintenance, I'd like to take over it,

if possible. In the meantime, can you include me in the list of developers, please? I have provided support for Bulgarian, French and partially French Belgium language extensions. Thanks.

Absolutely :) I've marked you as a lead on the package, and removed the unmaintained status.

Thank you.

Are you opposed to us churning out more unit tests and putting them in CVS? They were laying the groundwork for fixing some of the issues detailed in http://wiki.php.net/pear/packages/numbers_words - if you want to continue down that path, I'd love to lend a hand.

Well, I already committed Bulgarian tests and added some special cases for French language, such as 71, 80, 81 and 91. I also tried to add these to the French Belgium extension, but got an error which IMHO is a bug: 80 should be "quatre-vingts", and not "quatre-vingt"; 81 should be "quatre-vingt-un", and not "quatre-vingt et un" (to make difference from 21 - "vingt et un"). These are the rules for pure French language, and unless there is some special rule for Belgium, they should be the same. I'm sending a copy of this e-mail to Philippe Bajoit, who originally provided support for French Belgium, in order to confirm or deny it. And, of course, I am continuing down the path. Or up, hopefully. ;-) -- Kouber Saparev http://kouber.saparev.com
