Cool good to see people are interested.

@Coccodrillo That's a good point. I'm guessing Version 1 will be completely solo. Atleast I'm thinking that. But At the same time I've learned much over the years, but I can never assume that there isn't better ways to do somethings. This is where I think open source would be cool, cause it would make the project better, but it would also actually probably teach me something. So that's actually more of my reasoning. I don't care about money. Knowledge is worth more.

@MatthewSchenker Mine doesn't look too far different in terms of looks. Than what Phil has done actually looks like he's using some Twitter Bootstrap css also haha. I been to pyro before looks like it changed a bit since last time I was there 6 or more months ago hehe. I'll probably post some screenshots later. I actually want it look more polished before I do. I'm not a big graphic designer. So I'll likely be just 90% css stuff. Since it's all themeable people can customize that themselves later.

@PhilTem So far the main controller/Module is about 2500 lines, and the model is about 1500. And since it's early stages there is some redundant lines. This isn't really that much. Most of it is actually just logic stuff for permissions and user groups and stuff. Makes the functions really big. I've done a system that's about 25 times as large as that before that's more of a custom system. So I don't really find this that much really. I did this in about a week. With some small breaks in between. Mind you I'm actually pretty busy. But When I get something in my head about the logic of something I just do it all as fast as possible because I have to keep a lot of information in my head. As for my time. I work at my own development business so I do 12 + hours daily for the last 2-3 years. So I'm used to it lol.

I'm a little bit of 100% or nothing kind of person. So When I do something it's at full force.

I'll keep posting more information on the project as it goes.

I may also open up things to some testing too. Although I actually have a few people testing the current version now. Which has allowed me to fix a few small issues already. A few I'm still aware of. But pretty solid actually at the moment. So I'm ready to add more features at this point.
