Hi!
Any chances of r90 becoming 1.1.14 anytime soon? I added ruRU translation (mostly because of Flask/Elixir detection), it's spellchecked and tested for some time, so I would like to say it's of release quality.
Also, I'm not sure what a good solution is, but the paladin blessing functionality right now is rather inflexible. Now that Mana Spring Totem and Blessing of Wisdom are identical, Wisdom is no longer the highest priority for a resto shaman, but it's still nice to have, since if I have it, I can drop Healing Stream Totem instead. In a raid with one shaman and one paladin, the priority on blessings is really dependent on the fight. In fights with a lot of raid damage, I'd rather have Wisdom and drop Healing Stream. In fights with a lot of single target damage, or very long fights where mana will be tight, I'd rather drop Mana Spring and have Kings for the intellect for Replenishment regen.
Unfortunately, regardless of any custom priority or lack thereof that I specify, Buff Enough frequently thinks I'm not buff enough because I have the "wrong" pally buff. Really I'd like it to give me the green light if I have either Kings OR Wisdom. And, if I'm in a raid with more than two paladins, I'd like it to consider me buff enough if I have only Kings and Wisdom, since neither of the other possible blessings benefit me as a healer.
Yeah, that's been a point of annoyance all along with BuffEnough, I think: trying to make blessings flexible enough for everyone. I'm not sure what a good solution is either, but I think this has probably become a little simpler with the simplification of paladin blessings in 3.1. I'll see if I can come up with something a little smarter.
Another solution might be to capture blessing assignment comms from PallyPower. That way, if I don't like the blessing(s) I'm getting, I can just pester the paladin(s) and Buff Enough will pick up the change automatically.

With v1.1.14 (release) in WoW 3.1.1, its detection of Paladin buffs on certain character classes is often odd enough to cause its party/raid report function to become useless.
For example, in a 5-man party that has a single Paladin. When playing a Mage (Frostfire bolt/Fire spec where mana is not an issue), it reports that "Blessing of Wisdom" is needed when the player already has the preferred Blessing of Kings.
Another example: in a 25-man raid, with three Paladins and you as a mana-using caster, it will often report you needing "Blessing of Sanctuary" when you are in the same party as one of the Paladins. This despite your raid assigning that Paladin to do other buffs.
One thing that would really help this issue is adding an ability to only report to party/raid chat lines that you want out of what BuffEnough detects. And to not report lines that you don't want/are incorrectly detected. Instead of only being able to report everything it detects (as it currently does).
You can effectively already ignore buffs that BE says you should have if you actually don't want them via the custom config option. The issue you're describing, though, is really specifically an issue with blessings, which are the odd duck of the buffs world. The next update for BE will definitely be something a little better in this arena (after I figure out wtf is wrong with Acheron).
Yep, that's a oft-requested feature that's only my to do list. In the meantime, you can make an 'arena' profile and set up the desired custom buff checks/ignores so that you just have to switch your BE profile real quick to achieve a similar but slightly less convenient effect.
I've been extremely busy with RL for the last few weeks and haven't had nearly the time I would have liked to respond to feature requests on my addons. But know that I'm still around, taking note of everything, and will continue to deliver upgrades to my addons as time allows.
Is there a way to change the output channel of this wonderful addon? I'd like to be able to specify which channel it goes to, rather than tell the whole raid.
Thanks.
There isn't a way to report to a different channel, but once a buff has been placed on you and BuffEnough learns who's providing the buff, you can shift-right-click to send a whisper directly to those people rather than outputting to the party/raid chat.
Ticket #31 - When more than 3 paladins are in the group, BuffEnough reports that I'm not fully buffed because I'm missing Blessing of Sanctuary, even if none of the paladins in the group have the talent that would enable them to cast this blessing.
I'm looking for someone to take over BuffEnough maintenance and development. Unfortunately, I just don't have time anymore to do any addon development (I haven't even had time to download the latest patch!). If you're interested, send me a message or make a post and I'll get back to you about a transfer of ownership. Thanks and happy developing!
I made some changes to my local version of BuffEnough (include blessing of forgotten kings, no flask/food check for arena's etc) and I like them to include in the BuffEnough addon.
But I'm unable to contact the author of the addon (already sended him a PM). Anyone knows how to contact him?
I'm not planning to take over completely the development, but I can update it a bit so now and then (I don't have the time to fix everything but I can do something).

Great.
You don't actually need to contact the author to provide changes to a mod. A few options:
1) Upload the code changes right here in the forum; surround them with tags for easier viewing.
2) Upload the code changes to pastey.net and provide a link here.
3) You have an account here; request development access. You may or may not already have access with an account; been so long here that have forgotten the process. Have dim memories of needing to explain to the moderators why I would like dev access.
After you get dev access, get a SVN client, connect to the BuffEnough SVN repo (via one of the two "Development URLs") and go nuts. Be sure, of course, to (thoroughly) test locally in your copy of WoW all changes made before committing them (i.e. make sure they work and don't &*^& up the mod).
Also, you can't make "releases" of a mod here unless you are listed as a manager/author/maintainer/etc. on the project page. But the changes you make will still be downloadable as an "alpha" version.
Thanks for the info, I'll do that. I have made already some addons that are available on Curse so I know how SVN etc works :) I'll try to upload some tonight I think.
