Lightbox Gallery
Andrew Hancox, Clicking on any of the thumbnails brings that image into focus, and allows you to scroll through the
gallery at your leisure. Using the Lightbox scripts creates nice transition effects when loading and
scrolling through the images.

I think that's all of them.
Correct on all counts I'd say. Lightboxgallery hasn't had much code cleanup lately. I'll be doing some cleanup to make it work nicer with 2.7. Given all the api changes/deprecations since 2.3.

Just curious, as we start the upgrade testing

I've begun work on getting lightboxgallery working on 2.7. Strictly speaking, it should already work, however several parts of it are using deprecated functions/api's that need updating.
I've flagged the following bits as needing attention for a 2.7 version.
a) context classes (thanks to @ndunand for the context fixes - they've been merged in now.)
b) Port add_to_log calls to events.
c) Migrate comments to core comment API - lightboxgallery doesnt do anything fancy that core comments cant handle.
d) fullname requiring additional name fields from queries to {user}.
(a) has already been done as noted. I've partly completed (b) and am working on (c). I expect to have these all finished and a 2.7 version available this week.
I also updated the user_complete and user_outline modules in lib.php to not require use of the {log} table. Lastly, I updated the javascript used for the lightbox to the version @brum1975 made a pull request with.
Please file an issue on github if you try out the 2.7 version and run into any problems.
It has a flickr-esque interface where you can like things and leave comments. It also supports audio, images and video.
One difference it has from lightbox gallery, is that it lets any user create a gallery. But an update is coming soon to it that will allow you to limit creating galleries/items inside the collection to just the instructor (but allowing students to still comment).

I'm not aware of any issues with running it on M2.8. And the only reason the current build isn't flagged as being available for M2.8 here is because I haven't had the time to do some proper testing to verify that for myself.
If you go ahead and try it on a 2.8 and run into any problems; let me know, I'll be happy to look into them.
