Tired of having to manually edit confusing PHP files to
modify MangoBery sidebars? Didn't even know that was
possible?

Project Deimos will bring dynamic database-driven menus
and sidebar content blocks to MangoBery.

    Project Deimos is nearing completion. In the CVS tree, there
    currently exists a way to edit the Useful Links box; this
    will be expanded to make it more usable, and to encompass
    the "ad" box as well.

    Working on this. Only about 10% done. The new goal is for
    all of the menus to be customizable, but the interface for
    customizing them has to be far easier and simpler than
    competing CMS products.

    ... erm ... not quite implemented yet.

    However, functionality has been put in place to extend
    certain menus and/or overwrite them completely using custom
    PHP files - this will likely be used as a way to implement
    Project Deimos when it has commenced.

    Likely, the current method of editing the links box will be
    completely scrapped in favour of a new, database-driven,
    modular method.
