Talk of the devil (and he will appear)...
I hope it's not! I discovered zenphoto only a few month ago and like it best of all gallery systems I tested...
I am sadly not that php ace but I am willing to help a little if I can, too (I did a few little things recently that surely can be improved...). Even if it's usage documentation or the like.
PS: Seems that plogger is a strong opponent...
I had some serious problems with image uploads with plogger, which is why I checked out zenphoto. Basically, I had to upload and import 10 images at a time or things would break. I see that there is a new version now, so maybe things are better. Still, the implementation of zenphoto seems to be better thought out. Too bad it is at a stand still. I'm afraid, given the falling off of postings, that zenphoto may be a dead end. Of course, I can still use it as it is, and I suppose we could start maintaing a new trunk somewhere else if Tris doesn't get around to enabling someone to operate the Trak here.
Before you fork, let me make you an offer... organize yourselves in this thread:

Thanks guys, we'll get this rolling...
Sounds good to me too. I may not be an exemplary coder, but I sure can moderate, help support where I can, write documentation and learn.
