Hi Mark,

I really think templates should be used wisely. Some people (especially
me), really lack design skills. IMHO, we need a "UI usability team" that
will make sure consistent "look and feel" is achieved for official Envo
distribution. The same goes for DB, by the way. I think we have enough
talented people here to make envo much better :).

As for Comments API and other "enhancements", they can be thought of as
"utility modules". Such modules expose their methods (functions) for
other modules to use. This makes them very close to the API we are using
now. What we need to do is carefully plan any such utility modules. Get
developers and users feedback. And only after they are of production
quality, we should consider including them in our stable releases. OOP
approach might make it a little easier to understand and maintain, IMHO.

As for rewriting modules, I think we should do API first. After we get
usable API with at least basic things in it, then rewriting "core"
modules will be much easier and time efficient.

Best Regards,
