for your first mail:

    -edit user/conf/file_permissions.conf, remove the whitespace at the
bottom of the file.
    -the "0 length" is a broken bread_crumbs_and_tabs lib, I suggest you
edit user/tmpl/masters/binarycloud.phtml and remove the reference to it
(you'll see a bit of php with breadcrumbs! comments around it.


here, you must add an entry to user/conf/file_permissions.conf for your new
file. it would also be appropriate to add your new directory to the
directories array (at the bottom of that same file)

your page should execute fine, as soon as you put it in there.

Don't spend too much time with r1, r2 is a hell of a lot easier to
understand coming in because of the classes.

though I might have to backpedal on that because we _are_ using makefiles :)
