 * Looks like I’ll be enhancing Cartpauj PM to support attachments, and also to 
   have an option where normal users may not list other users but may only send 
   messages to an administrator. This is to support a patient portal for an open
   source medical records system, for which I’m a primary developer. Are you interested
   in code contributions like this? Rod at sunsetsystems dot com.

 * Rod,
 * I got an email from the WP plugin moderators today asking if you could take over
   development of the plugin. I’ve told them to go ahead and switch it over to your
   user account. I no longer maintain this plugin, so I think it would be great 
   if you did.
 * I only ask that you’ll remove any references to me and any URL’s pointing to 
   my site(s) etc in the readme file and plugin code and replace them with your 
   own. With exception of the name “Cartpauj PM”. It’s up to you if you want to 
   keep the plugin name the same or not 🙂
 * Looking forward to seeing what you come up with, and [ping me](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/interested-in-code-contribution/cartpauj@caseproof.com?output_format=md)
   if you have any questions.

 * That’s a bit more than I was looking for, LOL.
 * Not sure I will be very effective as a maintainer, but will take a shot at it
   until someone more suitable volunteers. Thanks.

 * Based on what the Plugin mods had said, I was under the impression you wanted
   to take it over completely 😀
 * Either way, you’ll do fine as a maintainer. You’re commits look good, just let
   me know if you need any help etc…I don’t have a ton of time to devote to my plugins
   anymore which stinks, but that’s life 🙁
 * Cartpauj PM was my first adventure into the PHP/WP world, and the code reflects
   that unfortunately hahaha, but if you can clean it up and add some better features
   it will definitely get more downloads than it currently does.

 * Yeah they took a pretty big leap with that assumption, but it’s OK.
 * I’m pretty sure it’s necessary to acknowledge your copyright in the code header,
   but I’ll otherwise do as you request. Thanks for the very useful plugin and your
   willingness to help going forward!
