I have made enhancement to PAM. Now on eject usb drive, PAM automatically closed.
My changes are noted in source code by comments "BEGIN: Device Removing Detection" and "END: Device Removing Detection" (without quotes).

Remove the files

Remove those files ASAP.

You've already purposely created a SourceForge project with a confusingly similar name (portapp vs portableapps) and a site with a confusingly similar name (portableappsworld vs portableapps) despite the fact that you know I'm applying for a trademark on PortableApps.com and you've been actively trying to get people to become a part of your site through this one. In addition to that you're now going to host PortableApps.com-branded apps on your site, too? Doesn't that seem a bit low to you?

Not quite what I intended

That's not quite what I intended. Check your email, I sent you a note with a way that we can get all this kosher.

Done

It's a Drupal thing. You can't edit your comment after someone replies to it unless you have moderator access.

Easy, there...

Don't be so hard on yerself, mate.

John seems to be a pretty reasonable bloke; I'm sure you two can work stuff out and we can thence all play nicely together, eh?...

It sounds like you didn't do what you did with any malice aforethought. If anything, you just need to be a bit more imaginative and creative with your naming scheme for things.
Might I suggest some candidates, such as:
- "Drop-In Apps",
- "Modular Apps",
- "Snap-In apps",
- "Swap-In Apps",
(since the idea is to swap-out - when possible - the old, bloated, installed apps for svelte, small-footprint, mobile apps [heck, I almost *never* use M$ Word anymore, since Open Office came along]...)

Or similar - or variations on the above ideas.
(The above assumes that those names haven't already been taken, natch...)

I really liked how andyduke

I really liked how andyduke did his device eject function, so I added what he did into my modification of the menu:https://portableapps.com/node/4844

Nobody should start to undertake a large project. You start with a small _trivial_ project, and you should never expect it to get large. If you do, you'll just overdesign and generally think it is more important than it likely is at that stage. Or worse,
