Yep, I'm very aware of both of those. But I've waited almost two years, holding back some hacks because I thought a new version was imminent. Now, I'm wondering whether the FORUM portion shouldn't be more of a CORE function that allows (and encourages) other functions to be linked to it. In other words, embrace "extensions" and various other third-party kinds of add-ons.

Remember when the TRS-80 came out? And if you broke the seal on it, then the warranty was voided? And then the Apple II was available and it actually had a LID on it that you could OPEN and install new components!!! WOW.. .what a concept -- allowing other manufacturers boards to be added to your computer!

That ONE feature helped make APPLE more acceptable to the early programmers.

What if we changed course with Threads, and allowed (nay, ENCOURAGED) add-on's?
