Right now probably Publisher.

And try to use it with this new theme Enzyme, that is specifically customized for Publisher.

I would like to see the current News, xNews, and AMS merged into one "News" module, but the biggest challenge is time.

Unfortunately, I am too much behind on too many modules updates, therefore I don't know if and when I'll have time to do it.

I hope, maybe somebody from the community could take ownership of this merger....

The one thing that I'll try to do in the next few weeks is to update the current News module, but no new features, just some cosmetic changes/updates.

Hey Mamba, what actually needs to be done with this?

If no one else picks it up I could adopt it but likely not until next summer unless I want a less intensive project to do before redoing profile for practice.

Rodney, I know that you mean well, but based on what I know about your school load, and based on your commitments to work on:

- stored procedures for XOOPS 2.6.0
- installer
- Profile module

I don't think, you'll find the time for it.

We need other people to get engaged in this effort....

You can try AdsLight.

You could use the theme Heyula did for cars, and modify it for real estate.

Like I said, at this point in time I wouldn't get to it until next Summer... ;)

I do hope to have 2 of the 3 projects done before summer. Especially since Richard has been doing much of the figuring out of the Doctrine switchover.
