I've been wondering the same thing about PHPWS_Database / PHPWS_DB.  No 
big deal, really -- just an intellectual curiosity.

 From the article it looks like version 1.5 (feature-wise) will 
basically be phpws 0.10.2 created from scratch w/ backward compatibilty 
for Joomla 1.0.   Based on what they're saying about the Access Control 
Lists, they'll approach Fallout capability "sometime later". 

It's unfortumate that it sounds like they're going to keep mixing PHP 
code in the template files, though -- although stripping it out does 
seem to be pretty easy though!  <grin>

"Events" sounds cool, though.  But don't we do that with runtime.php?
