Hi Chris,

I've ported the Mephisto asset management system over to my Radiant
project. It's not too difficult but it is a bit messy - I had already
ported the mephisto tagging system as well though so there may be more
involved when using a pure Radiant base. I would have produced a patch
but I'm working with a highly modified version of Radiant with a
different user system, tagging built in and a redesigned admin
interface so it woudn't have been much use to anyone else.

However... adding this kind of functionality should be a lot easier
once the new plugin system has been fleshed out. I'll definately be
looking at creating an assets plugin as soon as the core development
is in a reasonably usable state.

There was mention of porting the asset manager across on the list
previously but I havn't heard anything else regarding this. I would
suggest finding a usable workaround for now and waiting for the new
plugin system so that you can keep a maintainable solution that you
don't have to keep manually updating everytime a new version is
released.
