Hi Kupo, Sorry no offence was meant by not being flexible enough for our requirements. In the applications we have produced to date (Rambo is the exception!!), most of the time we do not even require a login, never mind an add, and we also deal with both bebo and facebook in the same api.
We are very much against the requirement to lock users into our application or introduce extra steps, unless they want to use it. For example if you goto http://apps.facebook.com/sponsor-me , or http://apps.bebo.com/sponsor-me, your'll notice that you can fully access these applications without even being a facebook/bebo user. Btw they both run the same code base, but for the time being run off different DB's until we have a new db model up and running to manage users from multiple sites on the same DB, it is currently a "work in progress". When I scanned through the code, there was no option to toggle login off altogether (this was several months ago), sure this isn't hard to add, but when we had our own code available and it has been running since the summer stably, there was no reason to change libraries for what to us is unknown code. I was suggesting that I make some alterations to the existing plugin, I too am not one for repeating work! The main points would be addition of the integration into bebo and also the ability to not require a login, making the apps available outside of their containers. Any Thoughts?

As a matter of fact you had a configuration option for the same feature (add vs login) And as "login" is pretty much included into "add" (if you add the application you pretty much login also). So I would strongly go against a new plugin clone of a plugin which I believe to be stable and feature rich. I am sure you may need to add some of the features you may be missing but that's just for everybody's advantage.
