Hope this is the right place to ask.
I have a drupal 4.7 payment module created for interwallet. I want to migrate it to Drupal 5 and contribute it back to the community.
I have the following questions:
- Is there a difference between Drupal 4.7 and Drupal 5 payment API?
- Is the module supposed to work as-is, after a standard Drupal 5 module migration process, or are there any other changes I need to make?
- Where to put it when I contribute it? Should I put it under the 'contrib' subdirectory of the e-commerce package? Or should I make it a separate drupal module?
Thanks in advance,
Amnon

Contirubuting new payment gateways
OK, I've found the answer here: http://drupal.org/node/66801
Contirubuting new payment gateways is a little harder then expected, for security reasons.
Drupal contrib
Yeah, that is only the case for packages in the E-Commerce package. If there is someone that will maintain the module on its own you can always take the path that some other developers have taken and release it as a separate module. (like ACH Payment Gateway or Payflow Pro which is an example of how you might be able to help get support for further development by releasing like this)
As far as the Drupal 5 payment API, the current releases of E-Commerce and for 4.7 and 5 are in sync with their API's. We're using the major version(currently 3) to show this.
Creating Payment Gateway Module
How does one go about starting to create a payment gateway module.
I have a client that needs to have a payment gateway to ECHO Gateway.
Where is a good place to start?
It all depends on which
It all depends on which version of e-Commerce you want to use.
But really both start at http://drupalecommerce.org/api
