Updating Station module for D6
Just wanted to let everyone know that I've finally started updating the Station module to Drupal 6. You can follow the issue here: http://drupal.org/node/250533
At this point the core station, catalog, playlist and program modules have been updated. I'm working on the schedule module right now and probably won't get going on the archive module for a little while.
I'm trying to move as much of the functionality as possible into CCK fields and Views. This will make it more customizable and reduce the amount of code I've got to update in the future.
It's still very rough but I'd love to have people testing it out--especially the upgrade path--so make a copy of your site for testing and try it out.

Willing to help test
I've been sort of on again off again trying to move WMSE.org onto Drupal as a way to finally cut me teeth on the platform and my plan all along was to make heavy use of the station module. Since we have some archive issues to work out outside of anything associated with Drupal, I'd be willing to help out with testing. Sorry I can't help out on the upgrade path, but if there is anything in particular you want me watching out for, let me know.
Testing 1,2,3!
I've got a second development site going... so far it's been pretty great! Many thanks again to drewish for kicking some major butt on this project!
I'll be bored as all heck during the holiday break so I plan on running the module through it's paces as hard as I can. We'll see what surfaces.

great!
the views support in the schedule is still pretty lacking and since i'd managed to get most of the 5.x-2.x code into views it's breaking a good chunk of it. between station and several other projects i'm getting pretty comfortable with views 2 and learning the right way to do things so hopefully i'll be able to get some argument and filter handlers written for the schedule_item's times so i can get the schedule day views working. ideally all the schedule listing and editing would be done in views but that might be a ways off so small steps ;)
but please, keep the reviews and bug reports coming. if you can chunk them out into smaller bits and file an issue for each (assuming they're not duplicate of existing issues) all the better because i work well when i'm going down the list checking things off.
Radio Engage is testing too!
We are in the process of building out a site for our project, Radio Engage. Our first station buildout is for KUSP in Santa Cruz. I've just installed and configured the modules (Station, Program and Schedule) and so far, so good.
I did run into one error on a fresh Drupal install that refreshingapathy also reported (http://drupal.org/node/357519). I was able to resolve on my installation and I posted a comment in the issue queue. Looking forward to working with you all more in the coming weeks.
Updating for 6.9?
Hi,
I'm in the process of working on a site for WERU in Maine and installed Station, then the head guy on the project upgraded to a 6.9 installation. I can't get the playlist or anything else, really, to work. Any plans to upgrade it for 6.9?
Thanks!
should be working
the archive is not upgraded at all and the schedule still has some issues but everything else should be good to go. make sure you've got the latest -dev release. if your still running into problems open a bug report in the module's issue queue and provide a detailed description of what's not working.
Ah nevermind... I've got it
Ah nevermind... I've got it working. Thanks
